HP gives workstations CPU bump
April 15, 2008 — 12:31pm ET | By Mehan Jayasuriya
If you're the type of guy or gal that has a high-end workstation sitting in front of you, chances are that you're either crunching some serious numbers or designing the next great CGI film about zoo animals. And either way, you're a hero in my book. So this one goes out to you: all new high-end workstations from the folks at HP. The HP xw8600 rocks two of Intel's latest, namely the quad-core Xeon X5482, with a 1,600-MHz front side bus and 800-MHz memory. If Amd is more your style, look to the xw9400, which has two Quad-Core AMD Opteron 2300s inside. No word yet on price, but you can bet that performance like this isn't going to come cheap.
For more on the new high-end workstations:
