AMD Opteron™ 6000 Series Platform 

Multithreaded Performance, Scalable, With Platform Longevity

The AMD Opteron™ 6300 Series Embedded processor is a 16-core x86 processor, delivering a rich mix of performance, scalability and efficiency for today’s highly threaded embedded environments such as networking, storage and medical imaging systems. These high performance scalable applications benefit from the modular design that offer up to 60-100% more cores than the competition1 and improved performance2 than AMD’s current products.

The AMD Opteron 6300 Series Embedded processor delivers the highest number of x86 CPU cores for challenging embedded enterprise workloads yet still delivers a scalable punch in a given system power budget and provides robust configurations in a platform that leverages previous versions of AMD Opteron 6000 Series Embedded processors.
