I've compiled some links about Opteron (previously Hammer)
If this CPU is available before Kramnik-Fritz then Chessbase should compile
DeepFritz in 64 bits mode for the opteron !
In some month we will see a big jump (2*2200+ to 8*3400+) in elo on chess
servers (ICC, chessbase,...) where incredible, fast and expensive machines
appears soon before they're available !


A unofficial roadmap about AMD products (you can see 4400+ CPU for next year)

An interesting article about opteron :
