IBM 13N0748 Processor Computer Component

The AMD Opteron processor option provides a highly scalable architecture that delivers next-generation performance as well as a flexible upgrade path from 32- to 64-bit computing. With a single architecture designed to meet current and future business needs, the AMD Opteron processor can help to minimize the integration complexities presented by current business environments and answer future business growth needs. This new Model 250 evolutionary processor with 2.4GHz front-side bus frequency and PC3200 memory support is a simple upgrade that yields an impressive performance bonus for the IntelliStation A Pro workstation. The AMD processor upgrades provide a dramatic increase in total memory addressability up to 16GB in dual-processor mode, with investment protection that can help reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) variable in 2004 and beyond.
