Summary
About the AMD Opteron 4386 CPU
The AMD Opteron 4386 is a 8-core (8-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q4 2012. It is part of AMD's Opteron lineup, which is based on the Seoul microarchitecture. The Opteron 4386 is compatible with AMD Socket C32 motherboards and is fabricated on a 32 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Opteron 4386 supports DDR3 memory. In terms of cache, the Opteron 4386 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 384 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 8 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 8 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Opteron 4386 features 8 total cores which can process 8 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 3.1 GHz, and it can boost up to 3.8 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Opteron 4386 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
About the Intel Xeon E3-1270 CPU
The Intel Xeon E3-1270 is an end-of-life 4-core (8-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q2 2011. It is part of Intel's Xeon E3 lineup, which is based on the Sandy Bridge microarchitecture. The E3-1270 is compatible with Intel Socket 1155 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 32 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Xeon E3-1270 supports DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Xeon E3-1270 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 256 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 8 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Xeon E3-1270 features 4 total cores which can process 8 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel.
