Roger Ferrer IbáñezMy colleagues are moving a research data center of ours and they're doing some spring cleaning.
Under this fan and heatsink there is the ill-fated AMD Opteron A1100, an Arm chip designed by AMD (4 / 8 core Cortex-A57) around 2014.

matthew - retroedge.techI did a bunch of research yesterday on older AMD Opteron server CPUs. My conclusion is that I won't go out of my way to buy any of them, but would be happy to play around with one if I got it in a haul of retired equipment.
An Opteron that is AM3 socket compatible is of interest as I have a number of good AM3 motherboards that I am not currently using.
For practical purposes, the older Intel socket 1155 and 1150 CPUs and motherboards are more useful as I already have many of them and getting more is easy and inexpensive.

Kim 🇩🇰 🇳🇴https://youtu.be/rMvwHMuTLGw From one of my favorite personalities within the tech-press Wendell of Level1Techs, a video about #AMD introducing x86-64, through #Opteron and #Athlon64 , 20 years ago today! I try and not simp for private companies, but I will forever have a soft spot for AMD, the computer world would have been much darker place without them, and their ability to disrupt the status quo. #retrocomputing #gaming
20 Years Ago, AMD x86-64'd the WORLD!!!

還記得之前聊過的雙 #Celeron 系統嗎？
今天再介紹一套雙 #CPU 系統
不過這套則是以旗艦的方式面世
2006 年當 #AMD 還在嘲笑 #Intel 膠水黏起來的 #Pentium D 時
殊不知 Intel 端出了同樣也是原生雙核心的 #Core 2 Duo 系列
效能全面輾壓 AMD 競品 #Athlon X2
同時更端出也是"黏出來"的 Core 2 Quad
更是打的 AMD 一個措手不及
為了跟 Intel 在「 #四核心 」這個未知戰場一決高下
在 AMD 的產品空窗期之時
只好先借用了伺服器產品 #Opteron 的設計
推出基於 #Socket F ( LGA1207 但在最終產品稱為 Socket L1)
的 #QuadFX 系列
在單一主機板上面
裝上了兩顆 #雙核心 CPU
並允諾未來可以直接升級四核心
成為八核心平台
然而高功耗與高價並未帶來相對應的效能與 Core 2 Quad 匹敵
而這個八核心的承諾
也成了夢幻泡影
