The AMD Opteron 2210 EE was a server/workstation processor with 2 cores, launched in August 2006. It is part of the Opteron lineup, using the Santa Rosa architecture with Socket F. To further increase overall system performance, up to two Opteron 2210 EE CPUs can work together in a multi-processor (SMP) configuration. Opteron 2210 EE has 1 MB of L2 cache per core and operates at 1800 MHz. AMD is making the Opteron 2210 EE on a 90 nm production node using 227 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Opteron 2210 EE, which limits its overclocking potential.
With a TDP of 45 W, the Opteron 2210 EE consumes typical power levels for a modern PC. AMD's processor supports DDR2 memory with a dual-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 667 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. ECC memory is supported, too, which is an important capability for mission-critical systems, to avoid data corruption. For communication with other components in the computer, Opteron 2210 EE uses a PCI-Express Gen 1 connection. This processor lacks integrated graphics, you might need a graphics card.
The SSE4 instruction set is not supported, which can cause problems with modern games, as they require that capability. Hardware virtualization is available on the Opteron 2210 EE, which greatly improves virtual machine performance.
