AMD plans to demo its quad-core server chips, expected to be commercialy available in 2007, in the middle of this year. The company’s goal is to show compatibility with its upcoming socket F platform, which will be used by new dual-core models supporting DDR2 and virtualization technologies, among other features. Marty Seyer, an AMD vice president, told InformationWeek that solution providers will need only to flash the bios to run quad-core chips on socket F motherboards.
