AMD has announced the availability of its new Six-Core AMD Opteron EE processor, which operates at 40W ACP (average CPU power). Delivering up to 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.
"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 of AMD's 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."
AMD said the results for Six-Core AMD Opteron processor Model 2419 EE is based on data published to Standard Performance Evaluation Corp as of August 27, 2009.
