Fujitsu Siemens Computer on Tuesday launched a new series of high-performance, low-energy workstations based on Advanced Micro
Devices' dual-core 64-bit Opteron processors.
The companies are billing the workstations as environmentally friendly because of the reduced hazardous substances used in
the machines and their power efficiency. The Celsius V830 is among the first platforms to use AMD's PowerNow! technology with
Optimized Power Management. The technology is designed to save electricity by adjusting power according to the load of work
being performed.
The power savings also leads to reduced noise because fans meant to cool the central processors can run at lower speeds, the
companies said.
Fujitsu Siemens' Celsius V830 workstations target users requiring intensive calculation and graphics performance in areas
such as engineering, digital content creation, visualization, virtual reality, and scientific computing, the companies said.
The workstations can be equipped with dual-core AMD Opteron 275, 270, and 265 chips, the companies said. They also include
graphics power from Nvidia's core logic media and communications processors, the nForce Professional 2200 and 2050, and the
AMD 8132 chip set with HyperTransport technology.
The Celsius V series is for memory-intensive computing, and can hold up to 32GB of double data rate (DDR) SDRAM (synchronous
dynamic-RAM).
