Dual-core Opteron vil passe i eksisterende bundkort

AMDs øverste chef, Hector Ruiz, har udtalt at de nye Dual-core Opteron processorer, som udkommer næste år, vil passe ind i eksisterende bundkort. Dermed ser det ud til at personer, som allerede nu ejer Opteron-baserede servere, kan se frem til at kunne opgradere deres systemer med disse monstre. Det betyder at man kan udvide sit 2 processor system, til et med 4 processorer, meget billigere end det ellers var muligt.

US MAG Eweek has an interview on its pages with Hector Ruiz, AMD's CEO, where he dilates on what his firm will get up to in the next 12 to 24 months.
And he said that next year its dual chip Opteron-whatever will "shock the hell" out of everyone because it will be pin compatible, hardware compatible and otherwise compatible with existing motherboards.
