Update for OSP, OST, and OSY Opteron Variants[edit]

In addition to the Opteron Processors listed that are also Opteron models such as the:

Dual Core 285SE (OPN: OSY285FAA6CB) Used in Sunfire servers by Sun...

68 Watt OSP252 (OPN: OSP252FAA5BL) Used in Dell, HP, and IBM servers.

AMD tends to, for some unknown reason, be poor about providing information for these parts. However, they are showing up more and more as older servers are updated. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Klayb (talkcontribs) 01:48, 16 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]

There's also an OST version of the dual processor Opteron.

68 Watt OST285 (OPN: OST285FAA6CB)

There are also OSP8xx and OST8xx variants. The OSP and OST variants appear to top out 0.2 GHz below their OSA counterparts. Some details on these chips are available at http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K8/index.html Jowifi (talk) 00:21, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a reference document somewhere for that 68W TDP claim on the OST285 processor? I'm not having much luck finding it anywhere in AMD's online documents, or in the references section at the bottom of this page. cpu-world.com has a question mark next to the 68 on its Opteron Identification chart, and they don't have a citation link either. I think it would be good to have a reference to the relevant documents at the bottom of each table, so people can properly verify and cite this data. Also, the article cites the TDP as 85W, and I can't find a citation for that number anywhere. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Soulpa7ch (talkcontribs) 05:56, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

update for 885[edit]

this page: http://www.amd.com/us-en/Corporate/VirtualPressRoom/0,,51_104_609,00.html

lists a dual-core model 885, processor, which I think is not yet reflected on this page.

Update for Barcelona TDP values[edit]

this page shows the updated TDP values for AMD's Barcelona chips: http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/43761B_ACP_WP.pdf —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.154.119.163 (talk) 10:37, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request for Istanbul Codenamed Opterons[edit]

About Istanbul (codename): Ist. codenamed opterons are listed in "Quad-core" section, but as far as I konw they're Hexa-core (six). I couldn't edit the page, asking profies to do that. Thanks. http://sites.amd.com/us/atwork/promo/Pages/six-core-opteron.aspx http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/ProductInformation/0,,30_118_8796_16004,00.html http://products.amd.com/en-us/opteroncpuresult.aspx?f1=Six-Core+AMD+Opteron%E2%84%A2&f2=&f3=&f4=512&f5=Socket+F+%281207%29&f6=&f7=45nm+SOI&f8=75+W&f9=2400&f10=6&f11=HT3&

Re: not relevant[edit]

My edit:

  • The Denmark core is identical to the Toledo core used by the Athlon X2 and Athlon FX-60. Only the most stable of the Toledo cores are labelled as Denmark and used in dual-core Socket 939 Opterons; the rest are used in Athlon X2s and the Athlon FX-60, as Toledo cores.

was deleted, reason given: "not relevant in this listing". However it needs to be said somewhere, which I've looked and it isn't. Any thoughts as to where this would in fact be relevant? Damien Shiest 15:30, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Opteron would be a good place. This page is a list of specs; Opteron is for more prose descriptions. jgp TC 03:30, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Should we have a page of List of Future AMD microprocessors???[edit]

This applies for the Intel side as well, so all the unreleased and predicted models will go onto that page and you don't have the future models on the pages with the released SKU's. Or is this in violation of Wikipedia guidelines, it would be helpful as it would provide people with information they want to know, as there is a demand for it it seems. Unless there is some rule that we can't I believe it would benefit many and we indeed should have a separate list. Coldpower27 20:06, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think it would be nice to have a table somewhat like the following, that we could all edit. Westwind273 21:48, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm using the English Wikipedia quite often because our German one doesn't have those lists. I like them ! (found something about future Opterons btw. (Volker) -- 195.14.244.23 (talk) 22:40, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Santa Rosa Shrink 2.8 1.0 11.20 CY07Q1 80~95 10.6 65 It appears this was cancelled when Barcelona was expected to come out mid-summer. Too late to change now.
Barcelona 1266 2.0 2.0 32.00 Sep-07 95 10.6 65 $390 $12 4 X FBD. Sun is heavily bidding this technology. 1207-pin Socket F. This will do 4 FLOPS per cycle. This chip will only do 3 instructions per cycle. Old code name may have been Deerhound. Also called K8L. Some articles say Barcelona is part of the K10 family.

Barcelona 45nm Shrink (Shanghai) 6.0 CY08H2 120 10.6 45 Shanghai is a successor to Barcelona in the server space for 2008. Shanghai will be an improved quad-core architecture, which is supposed to be socket-compatible with current Socket F platforms. Roadmaps available to DailyTech revealed Shanghai is a 45nm quad-core CPU featuring 6MB of L3 Cache. According to AMD's roadmaps, Shanghai will still utilize DDR2 memory, though DDR3 processors are also slated for production around that time as well. "DDR2 is going to serve us quite nicely for several years," added Seyer.
K8L Quad-Core Enhanced CY08Q1 45 Enhancements such as Direct Connect Architecture 2.0, enhanced RAS, and probably more for the processor die. The K8L platform will also add support for I/O Virtualization, PCI Express 2.0, 10 Gigabit NIC, and more. Is this the same as Shanghai?
Zamora? or K10? Mid 2008 Eight-core. FB-DIMM support. HyperTransport3. Is this now further out than mid-2008?
Montreal 12.0 2009 45 Eight-core. Hypertransport3. Is this the same as Zamora/K10? Montreal is supposed to be socket-compatible with Barcelona. Montreal is not "native eight-core", but instead is two 4-core (Shanghai) dies on one MCM.
Sandtiger (same as Montreal?) In 2009 AMD will produce a new core design code-named "Sandtiger" and a new underlying platform timed to the uptake of DDR3 memory. Sandtiger will be an eight-core processor built on the 45nm manufacturing technology. Like Barcelona, it will also be a monolithic design with eight cores all integrated onto a single chip. Sandtiger will use a new design referred to as "Direct Connect 2". This will involve four hypertransport links on each chip, up from the current three, and it will come with an AMD-designed server chipset. Sandtiger will use the "Bulldozer" cores.
Socket G3 Memory Extender (G3MX) 2009 G3MX promises to increase the number of DIMMs that can be used with each core from eight to 16. It will also support the newer DDR3 DRAM standards. http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2162188,00.asp

6xxx series[edit]

What does the "6" stand for? Presumably it no longer stands for the maximum number of sockets in a system like the 1xxx 2xxx and 8xxx series? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.110.175.122 (talk) 01:34, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Correct. The cpu designation numbers become less useful, you will just have to know, but The socket type becomes useful.


All the G34 socket cpu, at the moment the 6xxx cpu, are for two and four socket motherboards.

there will be no G34 single socket motherboards,

All the C32 socket cpu , even though labelled 4xxx, are for one or two socket motherboards, there will be no c32 motherboard with more than two sockets.

pretty much just means that you have to match cpu to socket type only.

Solid references to the upcoming Warsaw CPU[edit]

I have found what seem to be official details about the upcoming Opteron CPU release "Warsaw": Opteron 6338P (12 cores?) and 6370P (16 cores?) with TDP 99W.

A motherboard manufacturer should be one of the few who are clued in to correct details about upcoming platforms, right? (They make the motherboards where said chips will operate, after all.)

Document: SuperMicro A+ Brochure (November 2013) (footnotes of pp. 6, 8, 10, and 16)

Should these details be included on the official list of Opteron CPUs in the 6300 section?

EDIT: It seems that the CPUs have been officially released as of 2014-01-22. They can now be found on the Opteron 6300 page at AMD's website: AMD Opteron 6300 Series Processors - Specs

RDDR3 support for AM3+ Opteron suspect[edit]

Are we sure that the AM3+ Opteron’s support RDDR3? None of the other desktop socket version Opteron CPUs list support for registered memory.
