There is still something, I don't understand... What is Budapest?
Is it a specific version for cray? Or is it the desktop version of the barcelona?
Barcelona is a strategically important chip for AMD, as it tries to regain market share lost to Intel's newer Core 2-based Xeon server processors, the dual-core 5100 and the quad-core 5300.
However, Budapest shipments to Cray slipped. "Specific to Cray, we did have a change in our schedule, as far as when Cray gets Budapest parts," Hughes said, declining to share further specifics.
Barcelona is designed for systems with two or more processor sockets, but Budapest is for single-socket systems.
