The AMD Opteron 4332 HE is a server/workstation processor with 6 cores, launched in December 2012. It is part of the Opteron lineup, using the Seoul architecture with Socket C32. To further increase overall system performance, up to two Opteron 4332 HE CPUs can work together in a multi-processor (SMP) configuration. Opteron 4332 HE has 8 MB of L3 cache and operates at 3 GHz by default, but can boost up to 3.7 GHz, depending on the workload. AMD is making the Opteron 4332 HE on a 32 nm production node using 1,200 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Opteron 4332 HE, which limits its overclocking potential. With a TDP of 65 W, the Opteron 4332 HE consumes typical power levels for a modern PC. AMD's processor supports DDR3 memory. This processor lacks integrated graphics, you might need a graphics card. Hardware virtualization is available on the Opteron 4332 HE, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Programs using Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) can run on this processor, boosting performance for calculation-heavy applications.
