In the official presentations AMD representatives , until now, say that the six-core processors opteron (Istanbul) will appear in the second-half present year, although these processors models were demonstrated even during February. The bright start of nehalem processors will, possibly, force AMD not only to advertise the energy-saving functions of its processors, but also to accelerate the announcement of six-core Istanbul processors . Associate reported that the announcement of Istanbul processors was recently reported from the second half-year to June in the present year. As it is known, in this month in Taiwan passes the large exhibition computex 2009; therefore, AMD can announce six core processor in this measure. In the server segment increase in the number of core still capable of proportionally scaling the performance; therefore, AMD can completely accelerate the announcement of six-core processors on the monolithic crystal. Intel also promised to present in the next twelve months the processors class nehalem with six and eight core.
