AMD is holding its own in the server CPU market against Intel even though Intel is dominating the desktop and laptop markets. Today AMD has announced five new chips for the server market with six-cores.

The new offerings include a pair of low power HE models built on the 45nm process. The CPUs are intended to be used in servers with four, six, or eight processors. AMD's new 2423 HE six-core Opteron runs at 2GHz, the six-core Opteron 2425 HE runs at 2.1 GHz, and there is also a six-core Opteron 8425 HE that also runs at 2.1GHz reports ComputerWorld. The HE processors range in price from $455 to $1,514 each in 1,000 unit quantities.
