Opteron 860 HE

AMD · Opteron · 2005 · Socket 940

Overview

The AMD Opteron 860 HE is a server processor with 2 cores, released in 2005 at an MSRP of $2,149. It is part of the Opteron lineup, using the Opteron 800 platform, and fits the Socket 940 socket. Internally, it is built on the "K8" architecture. It operates at a fixed 1.6 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 55W, the Opteron 860 HE is an efficient chip suitable for modest cooling solutions. The cache hierarchy consists of 128KB/core of L1 and 1MB/core of L2 cache. There is no L3 cache on this processor.

2-core K8 Opteron (Egypt) at 1.6GHz on Socket 940, launched August 2005. Egypt is the 4- to 8-socket dual-core K8 design, which made eight-socket servers with 16 cores possible in 2005. It scales to four- and eight-socket systems. The HE (high-efficiency) bin trades clock headroom for a lower 55W TDP.
