AMD Announces Three New Dual-Core AMD Opteron Processors AMD announced three new models in the Dual-Core AMD Opteron processor family. The Dual-Core AMD Opteron processor Model 885 for up to eight-way/16-core enterprise-class servers and Model 285 for high performance two-way/four-core workstations and servers are immediately available. The Model 185 for one-way/two-core servers and workstations is expected to be available within 30 days. IBM, one of the first vendors to ship Dual-Core AMD Opteron processor-based platforms, will support the new processors in its servers and workstation product lines, with the BladeCenter LS20, e326m server, and IntelliStation A Pro. The LS20 blade and e326m rack server will utilize the Dual-Core AMD Opteron processor Model 285. Additionally, the updated IntelliStation A Pro offers a robust 32- and 64-bit computing platform for high-quality visualization in the fields of engineering and digital content, digital rendering and chemical and petroleum research. Sun Microsystems revamped and expanded its entire x64 AMD Opteron processor-based server, workstation and High Performance Computing (HPC) product lines with AMD's latest dual-core processors. HP will add the new Dual-Core AMD Opteron processors across its portfolio of AMD Opteron processor-based HP ProLiant servers and workstations. Dual-Core AMD Opteron processor Model 885 will add to the performance of the four-processor/eight-core HP ProLiant DL 585 and BL45p, while Dual-Core AMD Opteron processor Model 285 will do the same for the two-processor/four-core HP ProLiant DL385 and DL145 G2, plus the HP ProLiant BL25p and BL35p server blades. HP will also match Dual-Core AMD Opteron processor Model 285 with the performance-class HP xw9300 Workstation that features multi-processing capabilities and support for dual PCI-Express x16 graphics. Dual-Core AMD Opteron processors bring the power of four cores to HP’s xw9300 Workstation for scientists, engineers, designers and digital artists. The Dual-Core AMD Opteron processor Model 885 is priced at $2,149 in 1,000-unit quantities and the Model 285 is priced at $1,051 in 1,000-unit quantities. Source: AMD

Elpida Announces 1Gbit DDR2 SDRAMs Elpida Memory today announced the availability of its second-generation 1 Gigabit DDR2 SDRAMs and six memory modules based on the new devices. The new devices are built using Elpida's 90nm process technology, and they complement Elpida's full line-up of DDR2 devices that are currently in high-volume production. DIMMs based on the new devices include Registered and Fully-Buffered DIMMs for servers, as well as high-density Small Outline DIMMs for notebook PCs and Unbuffered DIMMs for desktop PCs. The 1 Gigabit DDR2 SDRAM devices are available in four different data rate speeds: 800Mbps, 667Mbps, 533Mbps or 400Mbps. They are organized as either 32M words x 4 bits x 8 banks, 16M words x 8 bits x 8 banks, or as 8M words x 16 bits x 8 banks. The high speed data transfer rate is achieved by its 4-bit prefetch, pipelined architecture. The supply voltage (VDD) is 1.8V ± 0.1V, and the operating temperature range (Tc) is 0 to 95°C. The devices are available in 68-ball or 92-ball FBGA packages for easy mounting on DIMMs. ![]() Elpida will offer six DIMMs based on the new 1 Gigabit devices:
Elpida's 1 Gigabit DDR2 x4/x8 devices based on 90nm process technology are available now in sample quantities. Registered DIMMs based on the new devices are also available now. 1 Gigabit DDR2 x16 devices, Fully-Buffered DIMMs, Small Outline DIMMs and Unbuffered DIMMs will be available in Q2 2006.
