AMD Opteron 850, 250 and 150 trio for 2/4-way servers
AMD today announced new additions to its AMD
Opteron processor family Models 850, 250 and 150 for two-way and four-way
servers and workstations. According to Marty Seyer, vice president and general
manager of the Microprocessor Business Unit, AMD, the product line will be further
enhanced by rapid transition to 90 nanometer manufacturing. The company has
already begun initial production of 90nm AMD64 processors, and is planning to
begin shipping 90nm processors for revenue in the third quarter.
As it is mentioned in the press release, AMD Opteron processor-based Sun Fire
V20z server continues to set new standards for two-processor server performance.
The Sun Fire V20z server, equipped with the new AMD Opteron processor Model
250, currently holds the record as the fastest two CPU secure web server (Sun
Fire V20z server, powered by two 2.4GHz AMD Opteron processors, has achieved
SPECweb99_SSL result of 2,500 conforming connections). This is in addition to
achieving a 37 percent improvement in the price/performance ratio over the nearest
competing 32-bit system based on the SPECjAppServer2002 benchmark (Two Sun Fire
V20z servers, each equipped with two AMD Opteron processors Model 248 2.2 GHz
processors, delivered a result of 690.13 TOPS@DualNode, 101.10 US$/TOPS@DualNode
for the SPECjAppServer2002 benchmark). The SPECjAppServer2002 is a client/server
benchmark for measuring the performance of Java Enterprise Application Servers
in a complete, end-to-end Web application. The two-tier SAP SD Standard Application
Benchmark simulates full business workloads with complete order, delivery, and
invoice processing and represents the critical tasks performed in real-world
e-business environments.
The AMD Opteron processor Model 250 is priced at $851 in 1,000-unit quantities;
the AMD Opteron processor Model 850 will be priced at $1,514 in 1,000-unit quantities;
and the AMD Opteron processor Model 150 will be priced at $637 in 1,000-unit
