AMD today introduced its Next-Generation AMD Opteron™ processor family, featuring industry-leading performance-per-watt and outstanding virtualization capabilities. As the only x86 server processor with planned upgradeability to native quad-core within the same thermal design power envelope, Next-Generation AMD Opteron processors are designed to enable customers to increase computing capacity without altering datacenter infrastructure. Improving upon what already is recognized as a standard-bearer for energy-conscious microprocessor architecture design, new platforms based on Next-Generation AMD Opteron processors will be offered in record numbers from global original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). In addition to launching its Next-Generation AMD Opteron processors, AMD also announced the completion of the design, or tape-out, of its native Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors. Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors represent another concrete example of the benefits from AMD’s overarching strategy to introduce new technologies with minimal customer disruption for maximum value. AMD plans to deliver to customers in mid-2007 native Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors that incorporate four processor cores on a single die of silicon.
Next-Generation AMD Opteron processor Model 8218 is priced at $2,149 in 1,000-unit quantities and the Model 2218 is priced at $873 in 1,000-unit quantities. The Next-Generation AMD Opteron processor Model 1218 is priced at $749 in 1000-unit quantities. The Next-Generation AMD Opteron processor Model 8220 SE is priced at $2,649 in 1,000-unit quantities, Model 2220 SE is priced at $1,165 in 1,000-unit quantities, and Model 1220 SE is priced at $899 in 1,000-unit quantities.
I'm definitely not going to buy that, damn things are more expensive the the X6800. If you have a server, then sure why not
