While the competitor is preparing a bet on the six-core server processor is said AMD now be on track to launch Opteron processors with the whole of the twelve cores. AMD will, according to launch its new 'Magny-Cours' architecture in March 2010. AMD's next-generation Opteron processors will focus on Parallel and labor by up to 12 physical CPU cores each, there is plenty of computing power.

As previously disclosed, the Magny-Cours architecture to introduce a new platform to carry the new Opterons impressive. Socket G34 as the entire 1944-pins will be home to AMD's Opteron 6000 family.

Opteron 6000 family of processors will run riot with eight or twelve processor cores and at the launch who then said to take place in March, will it show up more models with the maximum number of cores. The first Opteron 6000 models will work at 1.90GHz, 2.10GHz respectively. 2.20GHz. but AMD also said to prepare the so-called HE and SE models with twelve stones, those with clock speeds of 1.70GHz respectively. 2.30GHz.

There will be a similar set of Opteron 6000 models operating in clock speeds between 1.80GHz up to 2.40GHz.

It is not only the nuclei frequencies lower than the current Opteron processors, including the integrated memory controller and L3 cache have been ratcheted down slightly. Despite this, be as high as 140W in the top models.

Please note that in the same time as Intel introduces six-core processors with 32 nanometer technologies, said AMD now unleash processors with older 45 nanometer technology. What a bet that the best in the long run is hard to say but AMD is said to have good faith in its performance / watt, thanks to its many CPU cores.

Maranello platform that houses the new Opteron 6000 models will range up to 16-core processors in 2011 Interlagos architecture.
