Investment Protection
By leveraging AMD’s Common Core Strategy and Same Socket Technology, Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors are designed to minimize changes to your software and data center infrastructure to protect your IT investment and simplify IT management.

Outstanding Performance
Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors are designed for optimum multi-threaded application performance. We start with a native quad-core design – featuring four cores on a single die for more efficient data sharing – and add an enhanced cache structure and integrated memory controller designed to sustain multi-threaded application throughput. Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors provide outstanding processing power and can increase performance-per-watt to improve IT responsiveness while maintaining costs.

AMD Opteron processors enable stable, long-term solutions with outstanding performance and industry-leading performance-per-watt to simplify your IT management – now and in the future.

Enhanced Power Efficiency
Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors are the most power efficient server CPUs we’ve ever produced, thanks to Enhanced AMD PowerNow!™ technology and the addition of innovative AMD CoolCore™ Technology. These innovations are designed to reduce total cost of ownership (TCO), data center power needs, and cooling costs by lowering the energy consumption of your IT infrastructure.

Optimal Virtualization
Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors with Direct Connect Architecture enable industry leading virtualization platform efficiency. Featuring AMD Virtualization™ (AMD-V™) technology with Rapid Virtualization Indexing, Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors can accelerate the performance of virtualized applications and improve efficiency of switching among virtual machines – so customers can host more virtual machines and users per system to maximize the consolidation and power saving benefits of virtualization.
