New Opteron 2222 SE and 8222 SE models clock in at 3.0 GHz
AMD has released two new dual-core Opteron models 2222 SE and 8222 SE. The new Opterons clock in at 3.0 GHz and match the recently released Athlon 64 X2 6000+, in terms of clock speed. Both AMD Opteron models are identical, except the Opteron 2222 SE Is designed for dual-processor systems while the 8222 SE works in four and eight-way configurations.
The new processors also feature 2MB of L2 cache. These processors will drop into existing Socket F motherboards, which utilize DDR2 memory. Although AMD has yet to reveal thermal data power numbers for the new Opterons, expect a TDP of around 120-watts, which is typical for Opteron SE models.
AMD’s latest dual-core Opterons are based on the existing 90nm fabrication process. Expect AMD to unveil quad-core Barcelona Opteron processors later this year on a smaller fab process.
