Dell launches a full portfolio of PowerEdge servers based on the new Six-Core AMD Opteron™ processor.

On June 29th, Dell began shipping the new Six-Core AMD Opteron™ processors (formerly code-named “Istanbul”), which brings a new level of scalability and performance to Dell’s AMD processor-based PowerEdge servers. Compared to the Quad-Core AMD Opteron processor code-named "Shanghai," the new
Six-Core AMD Opteron processors offer 50% more cores, and new performance-enhancing features like HyperTransport™ technology HT Assist, all while staying within the same power & thermal envelopes.

Best of all, the new Six-Core AMD Opteron processors are also compatible with existing AMD processor-based servers, and are expected to be available on PowerEdge R905, M905, R805, M805, M605, and PE 2970 platforms.
