AMD
is launching new dual-core 3GHz Opteron processors for its two-way, four-way
and eight-way servers. To be more exact, AMD launched the Opteron 2222 SE model
for two-way systems and the 8222 SE model for four- and eight-way servers. The
two new models will both run at 3.0GHz and offer 2MB of Level 2 cache and the
same integrated memory controller and HyperTransport technology (a high-speed
chip-to-chip interconnect) as other processors in that series.
