Gateway leaks Interlagos and Valencia chip specs
AMD's hardware chum Gateway has accidentally told the world and its dog the clock-speeds for AMD's new Opteron chips, code-named Interlagos and Valencia.
X-Bit labs has been looking closely at Gateway's coming attractions and worked out that the clockspeeds will be a bit slower than many are expecting.
It looks like AMD will put out four models in its Opteron 6200-series microprocessors. Two will have sixteen cores, one, twelve cores and the last will have eight cores. The twelve and sixteen cores will be multi-chip modules and have two 6- or 8-core dies. The eight core chip will be powered by a single eight-core die code-named Valencia. It looks like the clock-speeds of the chips will be low as AMD slashes the thermal design power to keep compatibility with the G34 socket servers.
