AMD’s new Operatron EE Saves the Environment, and You!
Hey guys, Icarus here!
I’m going to diverge a little today from my Intel-NVidia one-two punch action on my posts, and talk a bit about AMD’s side of the market.
Today, AMD released its new 40W Hexa-Core Operatron EE processors!
So, why did AMD do this?
Well, because being environmentally friendly is a good thing. Saves energy, takes less fossil fuel to produce energy, and you still get the same or even greater result!
But that’s from an environmentalist’s point of view. Ours is from a consumer perspective. Sorry!
The Hexa-Core Operatron EE is mostly directed at, in my opinion, those people who operate multiple server systems in their offices, homes, and elsewhere.
What AMD did was they reduced the power draw of the Operatron EE down to 40W but still managed to keep the performance at the original level.
Basically, you’re getting more bang-for-the-watt.
Now, this processor is originally directed toward those with multiple server systems because these systems can draw so much energy!
It’s not just the hardware we’re talking about here; we’re also talking about the power bill most of you must pay for your house and other places to stay with electricity.
With many server systems running at the same time, a small decrease in power consumption from each server system can equate to a large saving. Basically, it can lower the bottom line for you.
So AMD, kudos to you!
However, for those of us who don’t run many server systems at the same time, you will probably want to wait for AMD’s other hexa-core Operatrons that should be coming out soon for all of us computer enthusiasts.
That’s all for today! Hope you guys enjoyed it!
Make sure to comment and post!
Cheers!
