AMD has taken the wraps off its first quad-core processors, a week after Intel filled out its own quad-core server line-up.

The nine new processors, formerly known as Barcelona, will be branded the Quad-Core AMD Opteron and is touted as the first native x86 quad-core microprocessor. The first quad-core processors are all targeted at the server environment, with AMD delaying the introduction of quad-core consumer chips, codenamed Phenom, until December.
