OEM Product
Next-Generation AMD Opteron™ processors with Direct Connect Architecture introduce several new features including quad-core upgradeability, AMD Virtualization™ (AMD-V™), and energy efficient DDR2 memory. In addition, Next-Generation AMD Opteron processors are designed to advance AMD’s performance-per-watt capabilities and leverage the proven technologies introduced in 2003 with first-generation AMD Opteron processors.
Next-Generation AMD Opteron processors are offered in three series: the 1000 Series (up to 1P/2-core), the 2000 Series (up to 2P/4-core), and the 8000 Series (4P/8-core to 8P/16-core). The 1000 Series is built on AMD’s new Socket AM2. The 2000 Series and 8000 Series are built on AMD’s new Socket F (1207).
Features and Benefits
| Feature
| Benefit
|
| Direct Connect Architecture |
Helps eliminate the bottlenecks inherent in front-side bus architectures. High-throughput responsiveness and scalability for your applications to improve overall system efficiency. |
| Up to three coherent HyperTransport™ technology links yield up to 24.0 GB/s peak bandwidth per processor |
High-speed, bi-directional, low latency, point-to-point communication link provides a scalable bandwidth interconnect between computing cores, I/O subsystems, and other chipsets. |
| Integrated, on-die memory controller |
Optimizes memory performance and bandwidth per CPU. Memory bandwidth scales with the number of processors. |

Direct Connect Architecture
AMD’s revolutionary Direct Connect Architecture helps eliminate the bottlenecks inherent in traditional front-side bus architectures
Direct Connect Architecture connects the processors, integrated memory controller, and I/O directly to the CPU and communicates at CPU speed
HyperTransport™ technology provides a scalable bandwidth interconnect between processors, I/O subsystems, and other chipsets, with up to three coherent HyperTransport technology links providing up to 24.0 GB/s peak bandwidth per processor
Integrated Memory Controller on-die DDR2 DRAM memory controller offers available memory bandwidth up to 10.7 GB/s (with DDR2-667) per processor
|
Quad-Core Upgradability
AMD Opteron processors with DDR2 memory are designed to offer a seamless upgrade path from dual-core to quad-core when they are available in 2007 in the same thermal envelope to help leverage existing investments
Maintain the same platform at the same power efficiency
|
AMD Virtualization (AMD-V)
Hardware assisted AMD Virtualization™ and Direct Connect Architecture provide a balanced approach to help improve virtualization performance, enabling more virtual machines to run per server
AMD-V™ reduces overhead by selectively intercepting instructions destined for guest environments
Direct Connect Architecture helps guests run at near native speed
Virtualization-aware integrated memory controller provides efficient isolation of virtual machine memory
|
Enhanced Performance-per Watt
Energy-efficient DDR2 memory uses up to 30% less power than DDR1 and up to 58% less power than FBDIMM
AMD PowerNow!™ technology with Optimized Power Management can deliver performance on demand while minimizing power consumption
Consistent standard power roadmap with low-power options
DDR2 platforms can upgrade to quad-core AMD Opteron™ processors in 2007 within existing thermal bands for significantly better performance-per-watt
