Dell 6.3 AMD Opteron 6200 Series Processors AMD Opteron 6200 series processors feature the following:  The processor frequency drops to 500MT/s when the system is idle to reduce power consumption.  Application Power Management: The Thermal Design Power (TDP) of the processor denotes its power consumption. This feature optimizes system power consumption.  Performance Monitoring Counters: The Northbridge P-states (performance states) allow more users to access the performance monitor counters at the same time. This feature reduces power consumption and optimizes performance within the specified TDP.  Low Voltage Memory Modules (DDR3L DIMMs): The Opteron 6200 series processors support DDR3L DIMMs at a lower operating voltage of 1.35V.  Support for AMD Turbo Core technology. 6.4 AMD Opteron 6300 Series Processors AMD Opteron 6300 series processors feature the following:  Improved TCO with higher performance, better performance/watt and better price/performance than the previous generation  Enhanced power efficiency, running applications faster with the same power budget  Improved performance and performance/watt (compared to prior generations) for multi- threaded environments like virtualization, database and web serving  Reduced power costs at low usage  Investment protection from leveraging current socket platform  Ideal for servers needing performance and scalability, like application and database servers in the cloud, large virtualization and HPC  1/2/4 socket support  4, 8, 12, 16 cores  4 memory channels 6.5 Supported Processors For the latest information on supported processors for the PowerEdge M915, visit Dell.com.
