The new AMD Opteron 4100 Series processor offers a low
power consumption per core, has been designed for cloud
workloads and mainstream infrastructure servers with prices
starting at $99.
This is the first AMD server platform designed from the
beginning to meet the specific requirements of cloud,
hyperscale data center, and SMB users needing flexible and
power-efficient 1 and 2P systems. This platform is also
available for high-end embedded systems such as telecom
servers, storage, and digital signage, through AMD Embedded
Solutions. Systems from Acer Group, Dell, HP, SGI,
Supermicro, ZT Systemsare expected beginning today and in
the coming months.
The Opteron 4100 series, ("Lisbon") includes six-core and

feature an integrated DDR3-1333, 6MB of L3 cache and can be
connected to AMD's Socket C32.
The new series includes the following CPUs:
The AMD Opteron 4100 Series processor has two 16-bit lanes
of HyperTransport 3.0 Technology links for up to 25GB/s
peak bandwidth per link between processors and I/O. This is
a 33% improvement in I/O bandwidth over the previous
embedded AMD processor implementations.
