Sun Blade X6440 Server Module

The Sun Blade X6440 server modules now support the Six-Core AMD Opteron processors, delivering more performance in the same power and thermal envelopes that the Opteron Quad-Core processors. Load up one of our Sun Blade 6048 Modular Systems with these four-socket Sun Blade X6440 server modules, and you'll get 12 TFLOPS of peak performance across 192 enhanced Six-Core AMD Opteron processors (1,152 total cores). It's the ideal solution for virtualization, HPC, and other memory and I/O intensive workloads. Get the system architecture details.
