AMD Bulldozer server info

[Fatfool]

I have known about these boards since they first existed, and like you said they are Socket C32. You may want to consider re-reading my post. I did not say Bulldozer, more specifically I said Zambezi dual socket systems. There is no way that a Zambezi AM3+ CPU is going to be compatible with C32.

Zambezi pretty much the same as Valencia. That is if AMD decides to do what it has been doing with Thuban and Lisbon (okay, lisbon isn't exactly the same as thuban as it lacks the turbo core feature but you get the idea.)

I'm using the term interchangably as essentially, they are the same, only with a difference in packaging. Even pricing is similar. Hence, if you want dual Zambezi, just get 2 Valencia opterons, which will hopefully be priced similarly to Zambezi Phenoms and use a dual socket C32 board.

You can use the same memory, PSU, case, blah blah blah but just with a second socket and processor.

What's the point of maintaining two SKUs with no difference (except the socket)? C32 and G34 is a different case because G34 really has some features which C32 doesn't. (quad sockets, dual dies etc)
