By Agam Shah – Server vendors on Monday came out in support of Advanced Micro Devices’ latest Opteron 6200 server chips, which advance chip technology to new highs with 16 processor cores.
Top server makers Hewlett-Packard, Dell and IBM are refreshing server lines with the new Opteron chips, which include between four and 16 cores.
