AMD Announces Six & Twelve Core Processors
Yes, you read correctly, although it’s not quite what you were expecting. AMD has just updated their server processor roadmap with single-die 6-core and dual-die 12-core Opteron processors. The new processors are codenamed “Istanbul” and “Magny-Cours”, respectively. The 6-core processor utilizes the current Socket F1 1207-pin socket and should be available in 2009. The 12-core processor is based on the new Socket G34 platform, and is planned for 2010.
AMD also revealed that 45nm processors are right on track to begin production in the second half of 2008.
