Advanced Micro Devices Inc. said its upcoming Opteron microprocessor will feature better integer performance than all other server processors, setting up a possible race with Intel Corp. to move to dual-core server processors as early as next year.

AMD's 64-bit X86 processor running at 2 GHz in a 32-bit mode will hit an estimated SPECint base2000 performance rating of 1,202 and a SPECfp base2000 rating of 1,170, said Fred Weber, chief technology officer of AMD's computation products group, at the Microprocessor Forum here Tuesday (Oct 15).

The closest competitor, Intel's 2.5-GHz Pentium 4 Xeon processor, sports an integer performance rating of 893, followed by the Intel's Itanium 2 with a 810 rating and IBM Microelectronics' dual-core Power 4 at 790.
