AMD to Demo '8-socket' Dual-Core Opteron System

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the well-isn't-that-special dept.

flynn_nrg writes "AMD will make the first public demonstration of a system built out of its dual-core processors today, the result of a strategy first made public almost a year ago. Two-core Opteron chips aren't due to ship until the middle of 2005, but AMD will have four of parts running inside an HP ProLiant DL585 server at its Austin plant later today."

    Call me a troll, but I would gather, pretty close to the same as if there were two processors.

    ...Intel has released it's newest chip, the Cho-Ken Chi-Ken III, a 16 Core, 22 Hyperthread, 324mb L1 and L2 Cache, with Artifical Intelligence Pipelining and Branch Prediction, which prevents premature ejaculation of code segments from data registers. This chip will revolutionize gaming (again?) and push Intel's Customer Relations further into the Twilight Zone.
