AMD Opteron™ 6200 Series Processor Quick Reference Guide
The world’s first 16-core x86 processor, delivering a rich mix of performance, scalability and efficiency >
for today’s highly threaded computing environments1.
AMD Opteron™ 6200 Series Processor
KEY FEATURES
>>New Core Architecture — drives more core density1 and
greater throughput2
>>AMD Turbo CORE Technology — allows processors
to independently boost their clock speeds, scaling
frequency up 500MHz-1GHz+ automatically to respond >
to the need for more application performance3
>>Flex FP — delivers 256-bit floating point processing >
with more throughput for both 128-bit and 256-bit
technical applications4
>>AMD Virtualization™ (AMD-V™) Technology 2.0 — >
heightens virtualization efficiency with new
enhancements to the AMD-V™ suite of virtualization
to optimize data center rack space and help minimize
management tasks
END USER BENEFITS
Unleash unprecedented performance of highly threaded
applications through massive, industry-leading core density
>>A new 16-core architecture for the next generation of scalable
business critical applications, featuring an innovative design
that drives more core density and greater throughput with >
up to 160% more cores than the competition5
>>The modular design features up to 33% more cores6 and
greater throughput7 in a smaller silicon footprint8 than AMD’s
current products, bringing high performance throughput for
scalable computing environments like virtualization, HPC, >
web/cloud clusters and database applications
>>Performance features designed for leadership across threaded
workloads and price/performance leadership across even
more workloads
>>Straight-through computing helps ensure that there are no
bottlenecks or compromises — when the workload grows up
to 16 tasks each has their own dedicated core, with maximum
memory and I/O speed available on every processor SKU
regardless of the price
>>Straight-through computing ensures the memory and I/O
architecture supports the power of more cores.
>>Break HPC barriers with the ability to scale to higher core
counts with fewer nodes9.
Bring unparalleled efficiency to your processing, power and
financial budgets
>>Optimize data center floor space and power requirements with
up to 16 cores, dramatically boosting processing efficiency10
allowing enterprises to do more work with fewer systems.11
>>Straight-through computing capability gives computeintensive applications like database, HPC and Java dedicated
processing resources.
>>New instructions help streamline software development by
minimizing code differences between platforms and help more
efficiently process applications, especially media encoding and
streaming, that utilizes complex >
SSE codes.
Today’s highly threaded applications demand more scalability
and the AMD Opteron™ 6000 Series platform delivers the most
cores in the industry5
>>As user loads increase for web/cloud, database applications
or virtualized environments, AMD Opteron™ 6200 Series
processors can continue to seamlessly handle growing
workloads and allow balanced scaling up to 16 cores per
processor.
