In equally configured platforms1, the enhanced Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ processor (“Shanghai”)-based platform offers up to a 72 percent overall performance to power ratio advantage over the highest performing 105W ACP Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ processor (“Barcelona”)-based platform. For these platforms, the enhanced Quad-Core AMD Opteron processor Model 2381 HE-based platform only used 115W at Active Idle compared to the Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ processor Model 2360 SE-based platform using 139W at Active Idle. The enhanced Quad-Core AMD Opteron processor Model 2381 HE-based platform had a SPECpower_ssj™2008 result of 1115 overall ssj_ops/Watt (371,303 ssj_ops @ 100% target load). The Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ processor Model 2360 SE-based platform had a SPECpower_ssj™2008 result of 648 overall ssj_ops/Watt (317,075 ssj_ops @ 100% target load).
1These platforms are configured identically using the same base platform model including motherboard, 4 DDR2-800 DIMMs of 4GB each, the same power supply, the same disk drive, and the same NIC.
