Introduction to the 686881-B21 HPE AMD Opteron Processor
The 686881-B21 HPE AMD Opteron processor is a high-performance server processor designed for use in data centers and enterprise-level workstations. It is built with the AMD Opteron 6278 16-core processor and offers a clock speed of 2.4GHz, 8MB L2 Cache, and 16MB L3 Cache. This processor also features Hyper-Threading Technology (Hts) which enables multiple threads to run on each core, providing improved performance and efficiency. The 686881-B21 HPE AMD Opteron is compatible with the Socket G34 and has a power consumption of 115W. This processor is a complete kit, including all necessary components for installation. With its powerful specifications and efficient design, the 686881-B21 HPE AMD Opteron is an excellent choice for demanding workloads and data-intensive applications.
Processor Details: AMD Opteron 6278
The 686881-B21 HPE AMD Opteron processor is based on the AMD Opteron 6278 model, which is a 16-core server processor built on the 32nm process technology. It is designed to provide outstanding performance and scalability for demanding workloads in data centers and enterprise-level workstations.
The AMD Opteron 6278 processor has a base clock speed of 2.4GHz, which provides ample processing power for a wide range of applications. In addition, the processor is equipped with 8MB of L2 Cache, which helps to speed up data access and reduce latency. The L2 Cache works in tandem with the 16MB of L3 Cache, which helps to further improve performance by storing frequently used data.
Processor Speed and Cache: 2.4GHz and 8MB L2 Cache with 16MB L3 Cache
This specifications refer to the clock speed and cache of a central processing unit (CPU). The clock speed of 2.4GHz means that the CPU can execute 2.4 billion clock cycles per second. The higher the clock speed, the faster the CPU can perform tasks.
The L2 Cache is a type of memory built into the CPU that stores frequently used data, allowing the CPU to access it quickly. An 8MB L2 Cache size means that the CPU has 8 megabytes of L2 Cache memory.
The L3 Cache is another type of memory that operates at a slower speed than the L2 Cache but is larger in size. In this case, the CPU has 16 megabytes of L3 Cache memory.

About New Bulk Pack Products
AMD Opteron 16 core processor (also known as Hexadeca-Core) was launched as a revolutionary processor in the server market. They were designed primarily for use in the servers for data centers, cloud computing, and System-as-a-Service (SaaS) providers. However, you can put a couple of the Opteron 16 core in the workstation. Currently, there are different models of these processors on the market, and each of them has a different clock speed.
More Features Packed in a 32nm Chip Size
As you have known from the topic, AMD Opteron 16 Core comes packed in a 32nm chip size. Inside the chip are the 16 different cores integrated memory controller, level 2, and level 3 cache memory. The cache memory size varies from one processor model to the next. For example, AMD Hexadeca Core 6272 has 16MB of level 2 cache and an additional 16MB of level 3 cache memory. AMD Opteron 16-core 6278, on the other hand, has 8MB of level 2 cache and 16MB of level 3 cache memory.
High Performing Processor for Any Server
If you are looking for server processors to upgrade your data center or cloud hosting business, then you are good to go with Opteron 16 core. They were designed specifically for that purpose. However, we have to mention that they have different clock speeds. The best performing AMD Opteron 16 core clocks at 2.8GHz, and uses a G34 socket. It is followed closely by AMD Opteron 6284 series, with a clock speed of 2.7GHz. There are other processors with lower clock speeds but not lower than 2.1GHz.
It is packed with all features that data-intensive applications need. It has proved its performance in many server versions, including generation 8 servers.
The Best Performance for Less Money
At its launch, Opteron 16 core processors' cost was many hundreds of dollars. However, the price has considerably dropped to a fraction of its initial price. Despite the varied price among different models, they are still affordable. They offer the best value for money and can also be used in other applications such as a workstation.
