Microprocessor, flash memory and circuits developer AMD (AMD.com) announced this week that it has released the AMD Athlon MP Processor 2600+, the newest in its line of multiprocessors for servers and workstations running critical business applications.
AMD says the 2600+ joins its processor family as the company's highest-performing multiprocessor. The 2600+ builds on the tradition established by the company's earlier processors by emphasizing comprehensive compatibility that AMD says can help reduce a company's total cost of ownership. The company says it continues to work closely with leading software and hardware companies to help ensure optimal performance, resulting in efficient and productive computing.
"Enterprise-level computing requires enhanced compatibility as well as leading-edge performance," said Marty Seyer, vice president of server business segment, Computation Products Group, AMD. "AMD took each of those needs into consideration with the AMD Athlon MP processor line. We work in concert with our infrastructure partners so that end users get a smooth platform integration and outstanding productivity. The result is that a variety of Fortune 1000 companies use systems with AMD Athlon MP processors to meet their business computing needs."
Systems built with the 2600+ processor are expected to be available immediately from 49 systems builders around the world.
