About the AMD Opteron 880 CPU
The AMD Opteron 880 is an end-of-life 2-core (2-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q3 2005. It is part of AMD's Opteron X2 lineup, which is based on the Egypt microarchitecture. The Opteron 880 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 880 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 880 features 2 total cores which can process 2 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute 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 880 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 Pentium III Xeon (550 MHz, 512 KB) CPU
The Intel Pentium III Xeon (550 MHz, 512 KB) is an end-of-life 1-core (1-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q2 1999 with a suggested retail price of $1,059. It is part of Intel's Pentium III Xeon lineup, which is based on the Tanner microarchitecture. The Pentium III Xeon is compatible with Intel Slot 2 motherboards.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Pentium III Xeon has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 32 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Pentium III Xeon 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 550.0 MHz. 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 Pentium III Xeon does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
