AMD today announced the availability of the world’s first six-core server processor with Direct Connect Architecture for two, four and eight-socket servers.
Six-Core AMD Opteron processors—code-named “Istanbul”— extend AMD’s commitment to offering server customers superior value at every price point with unmatched platform flexibility.

The new Six-Core AMD Opteron processor has up to 34% more performance-per-watt over the previous generation quad-core processors in the exact same platform.
