Advanced Micro Devices today released their new quad core Opteron series that consists of five new processors. These energy-efficient processors are using 65nm technology and feature an integrated memory controller in a low 55-watt ACP thermal envelope. The Opteron HE (Highly Efficient) series include 2347 HE ($377), 2346 HE ($255), 2344 HE ($209), 8347 HE ($873), and 8346 HE ($698) processors. The 8347 HE comes with 1900MHz core speed, 512KB L2 cache, and 1000MHz system bus. The 2347 HE provides 1900MHz core speed, 512KB L2cache, 1000MHz system bus, and 1900MHz cache speed. The 2346 HE and 2344 HE also offer the same specification except for 1800- and 1700MHz core speed respectively. [PCLaunches]
