IBM Announces Enhanced Partnership Support & Portfolio Extension Based on AMD Opteron™ Processors
Delivering Business Performance Computing
A new generation of IBM System x and Blade Center servers with 64 bit AMD Opteron™ processors
New IBM System x and IBM BladeCenter servers with AMD Opteron™ processors provide the right mix of performance, reliability and control - enabling you to capitalize on new technology and gain competitive advantage. Expanding the IBM portfolio, these innovative servers with up to four sockets provide new levels and combinations of performance and reliability.
New products with these processors include:
- IBM System x 3455
- IBM System x 3655
- IBM System x 3755
- LS21 for IBM Blade Center
- LS41 for IBM Blade Center
Specifically targeted at the enterprise market, and deployed in form factors optimized for effortless integration, IBM's eServer blades and IntelliStation workstations bring 64-bit relief to today's stressed corporate computing paradigm by capitalizing on the AMD64 architectural capacity for running 32-bit software with no performance penalty.
Dual-core variations in both product lines increase performance to blinding levels, yet still retain industrial-grade reliability through AMD's proprietary power management technology.
