AMD Shanghai Opteron CPUs On Linux
Tech Lime — Last quarter AMD introduced their “Shanghai” Opteron processors that join the ranks of Intel’s Harpertown Xeon CPUs that are 45nm quad-core server/workstation parts. Initial reviews of these new AMD Opteron processors have been very positive, but how do these chips perform with Linux? In this article we have our hands on a few of the fastest Shanghais, the AMD Opteron 2384 clocked at 2.7GHz, as we see how well they compare to the older “Barcelona” Opteron processors. The AMD Opteron 2384 operates at 2.7GHz, is a true 45nm quad-core processor, runs on a 1000MHz HyperTransport bus, provides 512KB of L2 cache, and ...

AMD Shanghai Opteron CPUs On Linux
AMDZone Frontpage — Phoronix tests AMD's Shanghai Opterons using Linux. From our initial testing of AMD's Shanghai Opteron processors they bring a number of advantages to the table. The Shanghai that is built upon a 45nm SOI process features a larger L3 cache and other architectural improvements that yield significant advantages over AMD's earlier Barcelona. In this article we just compared the performance of the Opteron 2356 to that of the Opteron 2384, and while there is a minor difference in the clock speed , the Shanghai-based processors exhibited excellent performance capabilities. In ...
