Reading guide

Read the performance results

The 457 CPU Mark is a broad overall-performance measure, while the 534 single-thread result adds context for less-parallel work. Compare the nearby alternatives on this page and do not treat one score as a verdict for every application.

Platform and compatibility

It uses socket 939. A matching socket is only the first check; confirm the official motherboard CPU-support list, BIOS revision and board power limits.

Memory and power

The 104 W TDP helps size the cooling class, but it is not the same as peak wall-power consumption.

FAQ

Common processor questions

What are the key AMD Opteron 154 specifications?

The main recorded details are 1 cores and 1 threads, a 104 W reference TDP, a 457 CPU Mark. The tables on this page show socket, memory, cache and graphics data when available.

Is the AMD Opteron 154 good for gaming?

The product name or CPU Mark alone cannot answer that. Check single-thread performance, core count, the target graphics card, gaming resolution and results from the games you play.

Which motherboards support the AMD Opteron 154?

Start with 939 motherboards, then confirm the official CPU-support list and required BIOS revision for the exact board before buying.
