Istanbul Opteron in the wild

Istanbul Opteron in the wild

AMD’s faithful will have to jetset to the Land of the Rising Sun if they want to get their hands on Big Green’s newest; the six-core Istanbul-based Opterons 2427, 2431 and 2435 have tipped up on the legendary streets of Japan’s Akihibara district.

The Opteron 2427 runs approximately $632 with today’s Yen/USD exchange rate, while the 2431 tips the scales at a hefty $971.

    ardichoke No kidding. I'd love to have enough money to build a new server with dual Istanbuls... of course I don't really have any need for something that powerful at this point.

Howdy, Stranger!
