AMD · Opteron · 2004 · Socket 940
The AMD Opteron 250 (Troy) is a server processor with 1 core, released in 2004 at an MSRP of $690. It is part of the Opteron lineup, using the Opteron 200 platform, and fits the Socket 940 socket. Internally, it is built on the "K8" architecture. It operates at a fixed 2.4 GHz. AMD manufactures the "K8" silicon on a 90nm process node. This processor supports DDR memory across 2 channels, with ECC support standard for data integrity in server workloads. It supports both single-socket (1P) and dual-socket (2P) configurations. With a TDP of 85.3W, the Opteron 250 (Troy) sits in a typical power envelope for a modern desktop CPU. The cache hierarchy consists of 128KB/core of L1 and 1MB of L2 cache. There is no L3 cache on this processor.
1-core K8 Opteron (Troy) at 2.4GHz on Socket 940, launched December 2004. Troy is the 90nm dual-socket refresh of the original Opteron, adding SSE3 and higher clocks than the 130nm parts. It supports up to two-socket systems.
