| AMD Challenges Intel to a Dual-Core Duel. |
The Challenge
AMD proposes a live dual-core duel in 2005 - a public performance evaluation between server platforms based on the highest-performing Dual-Core AMD Opteron™ 800 Series or 200 Series processors and the corresponding Intel x86 server processors that are commercially available in volume.
AMD is proud to offer a true dual-core computing solution for x86 servers and workstations - the Dual-Core AMD Opteron™ processor.
Visit AMD's web site over the coming months for additional details on the duel, including an online petition to be launched in early September, where visitors will have the opportunity to voice their support for the dual-core duel.
The Champ
With the AMD64 platform, we established our leadership in 64-bit computing. Now we are proud to be leading the computing industry in dual-core x86 server computing.
We designed the AMD Opteron processor and our entire family of AMD64 processors for multiple cores. We knew that multiple cores would be the next evolutionary step in high-performance computing.
The future of dual-core computing is here today. And you’ll find the best performing solution with AMD and our revolutionary Direct Connect Architecture.
