Thread: AMD's 12 Core Processor in Stores already !

AMD's 12 core server processor, code named Magny Cours is for sale on an online store for $7000 !($8000 for instant purchase). The seller is a reputed one and these chips look real. According to AMD, these chips are due some time this quarter.

The seller has also put up a server with all 4 of these processors giving you 48 cores combined for the system. Its priced at $20,000. It also comes with 64GB of memory too.


The server chip is clocked at 2.2GHz and has 12MB of L3 cache. It supports DDR3 memory only. These chips are to be branded under Opteron 6000 series. They will be available in different variants, essentially having different clocks.
