Dell PowerEdge servers have taken performance to new levels with the launch of Quad-core AMD Opteron processors. The PowerEdge SC1435, 2970, M605 and 6950 platforms now offer AMD’s new quad-core processors, supporting Dell’s strategy to drive more complete and cost-effective enterprise technologies across various customer environments.

Dell provides customers who use these PowerEdge platforms with investment protection and long term server value by offering a simple and seamless upgrade path to the new Quad-Core AMD Opteron processor.

Equipped with Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors, Dell’s two-socket servers including the PowerEdge SC1435, 2970 and M605 can deliver up to 79 percent better performance compared to the same servers operating with dual-core AMD Opteron.

Dell expanded its PowerEdge server line with the addition of its new T605 tower server. Equipped with Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors, the PowerEdge T605 achieves up to 23 percent better performance than the HP ProLiant ML350 G5. The T605 is ideal for small and medium businesses or remote locations and offers high-availability features such as redundant power supplies, hot plug hard drives, and remote management features to help increase uptime and prevent loss of data access.

“Our PowerEdge servers deliver on Dell’s commitment to simplify IT by providing customers with a seamless and simple upgrade path to quad-core, making it easier and quicker for them to realize the benefits of these advanced processors,” said Sally Stevens, Director of PowerEdge Servers, Dell Product Group.
