AMD Istanbul Peformance Video, 6-Cores Are In Fact Speedy

There’s something to be said about a new CPU that can perform faster than its predecessor all within the same thermal envelope and, thankfully, is capable of “socketing” into place so you can keep your old hardware.

AMD’s upcoming 6-core “Istanbul” Opteron chips certainly outclass the older quad-core “Shanghai” processors, the only question is if you’ll get your hands dirty upgrading your servers, or you’ll just buy new ones based on these chips.
