Dell Adopts AMD Chips

by on May 19th, 2006

In big news that is expected to have wide-ranging effects including an expected dip in Intel stock, Dell has announced its plan to start using AMD Opteron processors in its multi-processor server line.

The move has not been unexpected as Opterons benchmark higher than Intel’s Xeon processor but up until now, Intel and Dell have had a lockstep marriage.

At the open of the market today, Intel stock was trading at $18.65/share. Will watch through the day.
