AMD on Tuesday squeezed another speed bump out of its Thoroughbred core before the Barton MP that's still on its roadmap materializes.
The company says it's got a pure 32-bit 2600+ Athlon MP, good for a fraction above the 2400+ Athlon MP it came out with a month and a half ago rated at 2GHz. This one it says is worth 2.133GHz, but it's supposed to perform better than a 2.6GHz Intel chip on certain applications.
The widget supports one- and two-way Windows and Linux servers and workstations.
The newly available chip is priced at $273 in 1,000-unit quantities, roughly 50 bucks higher than the 2400+.
The Barton MP chip is rumored to be worth 2.4GHz-2.5GHz with added cache and a bigger bus. According to the latest roadmap it scheduled to come out apparently in the second quarter. Meanwhile, AMD is now supposed to debut Opteron, its hybrid 32/64-bit x86-64 also for two-way servers, at the end of April. It's unclear when the Barton will be abandoned in favor of the Opteron.
