There are many reasons why you should consider an AMD based server.
The newer AMD processors boast a brand new 16-core architecture for the next generation of scalable business critical applications, these processors feature an innovative design that drives more core density and greater throughput with up to 160% more cores than the competition.AMD Processors also have Greater Efficiency in what AMD are calling "C6 Power State" This is when a core is halted and its workload is then exported to system memory, the voltage needed to run this core is then removed therefore saving power. In times where efficiency is paramount this technology really saves you money.
Greater Scalability - AMD Turbo CORE Technology - Allows processors to independently boost their clock speed to respond to the need for more application performance. The industry’s best full-core boost - up to 500 MHz.
AMD is also traditionally cheaper than their competition, this means that the power vs pounds trade off is better with AMD.
The Current ProLiant range of AMD based servers is as follows,
BL465 G7 - For use in the C3000/C7000 Blade Chassis.
BL685 G7 - For use in the C3000/C7000 Blade Chassis.
DL165 G7 - 1u Standalone Rack server
DL385 G7 - 2u Standalone Rack server
DL585 G7 - 4u Standalone Rack server
