amd opteron a1100

Does it at least have the level of performance you'd expect from such a chip?

>>52443950
it's supposedly "better than Atom, not as good as xeon D"

>>52443965
well that narrows it down

2x 10Gb
12x SATA3

Yeah, that TDP is there for a reason.
This is stuff for cold storage and I/O workloads.

Give me ECC and x86 with those and I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

It has 8 cores

avoton does the same shit at 12W. Granted it's on a finfet process, but you'd think ARM would make up for it

There is no fucking way Avoton has that many SATA ports and most certainly doesn't have two 10Gb ports, I think it was 4x2.5Gb.

The uncore of this A1100 takes up most a lot of the TDP budget.
If you want performance on top of that wait for the custom ARM cores in 2017 on FinFETs

Runs at 1.7-2GHz and has 8 cores at its highest tier(ie the one OP is referring to).

These things are meant for microservers so they might end up packed close together.

Pretty large caches and wide memory controllers as well, taking into account all the giganting southbridge shit in this thing it doesn't look that bad.

Still, TDP is TDP, actual workload power could end up quite smaller when you plug in 12 disks on these boards and they overshadow the measly chip usage.

A single 10Gb card costs more than 2 of these chips, each has two 10Gb controllers.
