Here's what they are saying
With the release of the AMD Opteron™ processors Model 880 and Model 280, we are able to address customers in vertical markets with a range of the most powerful solutions available in the market today. We already build and market 8-way server solutions for dedicated IT infrastructures with AMD's single-core technology at 2.2GHz. AMD’s newest dual-core processors enable us to provide up to 16 cores at 2.4GHz in a single server system with enterprise-class performance and low power consumption at a reasonable price point.

The latest Dual-Core AMD Opteron™ processors provide the best dual, quad and eight-way processing server architecture for x86 computing. It fits perfectly with our success in pushing the computing envelope in high performance computing with our 1U 4P/8-core and 5U 8P/16-core processing servers.
- -James Bowen, Director of Engineering, HPC Systems, Inc.
Microway's DSP (digital signal processing) customers who have been testing the latest models of Dual-Core AMD Opteron™ processors have found them to be an excellent solution for their applications. Not only are the physical space and power savings important, initial feedback shows results approaching a 2x improvement in performance.
- -Stephen Fried, President and CTO, Microway, Inc.
It’s unbelievable what AMD did with the Dual-Core AMD Opteron™ processor. Not only can we now offer four-way (8-core) systems, but we can offer two-way (4-core) servers and workstations in smaller form factors than previously possible. You want four cores sitting in a tower on your desk for CAD? Done.
- -Trey Harris, Founder, Monarch Computer
Our customers need robust, high performance processing power to meet today's computing needs. Some have selected Dual-Core AMD Opteron™ processors to run their e-businesses. Power and performance drive the Internet, and AMD and Open Source Storage deliver.
