The AMD Opteron is the first eighth-generation x86 processor (K8 core), and the first of AMD's AMD64 (x86-64) processors, released April 22, 2003.
The Opteron approach to multi-processing is not the same as standard symmetric multiprocessing as instead of having one bank of memory for all CPUs, each CPU has its own memory.
AMD's fastest single-core Opteron at this time was the model 252, with one core running at 2.6 gigahertz.

 AMD - Indopedia, the Indological knowledgebase
During this time, AMD attempted to embrace the perceived shift towards RISC with their own AMD 29K processor (based on a bitslice computational model), and they attempted to diversify into graphics and audio devices as well as flash memory.
AMD also released a second line of processors based on the Athlon core called the Duron which was a slower and cheaper version of the processor aimed at competing against the still-shipping Celeron processor, providing some insulation for the Athlon against AMD's prior reputation for only making cheaper and slower "Intel clones".
AMD then released Athlon 64 and Athlon 64 FX in September 2003 based on the same core architecture, which most benchmarks indicated both as performing equal or better than the Pentium 4.

AMD gained a reputation of making a somewhat slower and less reliable "x86 clone" even though the performance difference was slight and the best K6 compatible motherboards were very reliable.
Intel countered AMD and its Athlon by ramping the Pentium 4 clock rate aggressively in its early lifetime, just as the Athlon was nearing its end of life, giving it a brief period of performance dominance.

Availability of such pictures may mean that AMD is sampling its processors that are expected to be formally introduced in Q4 2004 with some makers of computer mainboards or computers, if the microprocessors’ photos are not fake ones.
Since AMD firstly transits more simplistic parts to 90nm process technology now, the 90nm core that is likely to power the future Athlon 64 FX processors is currently projected to emerge in Q2 2005, which requires AMD to continue shipping competitive products made using 130nm in high-end desktop and server markets till then.
By the time the AMD Athlon 64 FX-57 hits the market, the Sunnyvale, California-based chipmaker is likely to launch its Athlon 64 4000+ (Q4 2004), Athlon 64 4200+ (Q1 2005) and Athlon 64 4400+ (Q2 2005), sources said.

 'AMD me' Unleashed
In a world full of computers where "Intel Inside" is the norm, Advanced Micro Devices AMD (Quote, Chart) has had the monumental task of converting the general public to its chips.
The message is that AMD chips can run both 32- and 64-bit applications as computing goes through its transition from 32- to 64-bit architectures, yet still maintain the older infrastructure.
AMD will also find stiff competition from Sun Microsystems (Quote, Chart), which has large investments in 32- and 64-bit processor, albeit Sun's direction seems aimed more at the business user than the home user.

 Dual Opteron pictures up
Mark Tellez, AMD's server and workstation manager, also showed me a picture of the Opteron – unfortunately this one was a little of focus but it's worth noting that although you can't see it on the photograph, it's got the word Opteron printed on top of the CPU.
As for the pictures of the Opterons – I asked the technical guy who was looking after the show why the case they were in was so large – was it because dual Opterons needed special cooling?
He said no – in fact this was just a test rig case AMD used for demonstrations, and the Opterons required no special cooling.
