About the AMD Opteron 850 CPU
The AMD Opteron 850 is an end-of-life 1-core (1-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q2 2004. It is part of AMD's Opteron lineup, which is based on the SledgeHammer microarchitecture. The Opteron 850 is compatible with AMD Socket 940 motherboards and is fabricated on a 130 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Opteron 850 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 128 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Opteron 850 is a single-core and single-threaded CPU, making it not capable of processing multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.4 GHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Opteron 850 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
About the AMD Opteron 848 HE CPU
The AMD Opteron 848 HE is an end-of-life 1-core (1-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q1 2005. It is part of AMD's Opteron lineup, which is based on the Athens microarchitecture. The Opteron 848 HE is compatible with AMD Socket 940 motherboards and is fabricated on a 90 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Opteron 848 HE has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 128 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Opteron 848 HE is a single-core and single-threaded CPU, making it not capable of processing multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.2 GHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Opteron 848 HE does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
