— Increased performance in same 40-watt ACP power band as previous generations; meets unique requirements of hyperscale datacenters —
AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announced the immediate availability of the new Six-Core AMD OpteronTM EE processor at 40W ACP. Delivering 31 percent higher performance-per-watt over standard Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors?, the Six-Core AMD Opteron EE processor is tailored to meet the demands of customers who need strong performance, but must trim out every watt possible in a server system and reduce the datacenter’s power draw.
- Many customers requiring this very low power processor deploy dense, large-scale IT projects where system power trumps raw performance and every watt of power savings can have significant positive impact on the bottom line.
- AMD offers the widest range of energy-efficient processors, with more than three times the number of green-focused choices than the competitor.
- All of AMD’s low power processors are fully-featured and available with the same AMD-V? and AMD-P features for advanced virtualization and power savings capability as standard power versions.
- This 40W ACP processor is currently being integrated in custom solutions programs from both Dell and HP, and from numerous system builders, for cloud and Web 2.0 customers where density and low power are key considerations.
“It’s important for our industry to look at how technology is being used and where customers have emerging needs,” said Patrick Patla, vice president and general manager, Server and Workstation Division. “The AMD Opteron EE processor enables OEMs to deliver energy-sipping servers that don’t compromise on power management, virtualization or performance features. It is specifically designed to help address the challenges that are generating a great deal of discussion these days - building and running very dense data centers for Web services, while doing more with less.”
