Offering Industry-Leading Performance-Per-Watt and Superior Virtualization capabilities
Building on the strengths of the original Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ processor, the new Quad-Core AMD Opteron processor represents the most thermally efficient, highest performing server and workstation processor that AMD has ever produced – while further enhancing AMD’s already leading capabilities for efficient server virtualization.
AMD Opteron processors also enable stable, long-term server and workstation solutions with industry-leading performance and energy efficiency. They’re designed to simplify your IT management — now and in the future.
Superior Virtualization
Designed around a market-tested architecture, the enhanced Quad-Core AMD Opteron processor eases the transition to a virtualized environment by going way beyond mere gigahertz. Because in virtualized systems, where hardware resources are shared, performance means more than just raw clock speed. You need rapid memory access; our experience shows us that virtualized servers demand as much as 5x the memory bandwidth of standard servers. You also need massive I/O capabilities to address the contention for shared storage space. Which is why our Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ processor was built on AMD Direct Connect Architecture, an innovative technology that directly connects the processor core to memory, so big workload spikes aren't a problem
