The advanced AMD Opteron 265 Dual-core processor provides a highly scalable architecture that delivers next-generation performance as well as a flexible upgrade path from 32- to 64-bit computing for any workstation and server platform and is a dramatic leap forward in compatibility, performance, investment protection and reduced total cost of ownership.
Designed for 2-way configurations with cutting-edge dual-core technology, this multi-talented processor operates at 1.8GHz with 2 x 1MB (2MB total) L2 Cache for significantly enhanced multi-tasking and overall system performance for incredible efficiency in complex computing environments such as server platforms in international enterprises, small-medium businesses, government and educational institutions; and CAD, graphics, and scientific workstation platforms.
AMD64 Dual-core TechnologyAMD64 is designed to enable simultaneous 32- and 64-bit computing with no degradation in performance. With dual-core technology there are two complete processor cores in one physical package running at the same frequency to deliver TRUE multi-tasking power, allowing users to switch from one program to another without pausing for the computer to catch up and reducing annoying processing pauses.
Integrated DDR DRAM Memory ControllerThe AMD Opteron 265 Dual-core processor is integrated with a DDR DRAM memory controller capable of supporting registered and ECC DRAM. The integrated memory controller changes the way the processor accesses main memory, resulting in increased bandwidth, reduced memory latencies, and enhanced processor performance. Usage of DDR400/PC3200 memory will provide each processor in either a 1-way or 2-way system with up to 6.4GB/s memory bandwidth.
HyperTransport TechnologyHyperTransport Technology (HT or HTT) is a high-speed, low latency, point-to-point link designed to increase communication speeds between integrated circuits in computers, servers, embedded systems, and networking and telecommunications equipment. With HT technology the AMD Opteron 265 Dual-core processor enjoys 1000MHz system bus speeds.
Enhanced Virus ProtectionAll AMD processors equipped with AMD64 technology are Enhanced Virus Protection-enabled. Enhanced virus protection acts as a preventative measure causing viruses to be localized, short-lived, and non-contagious, eventually being flushed from system memory.
