We do not have any Athlon64/Opteron test boxes but do not expect there to be any issues with these processors when operating in 32bit mode (GT.M is known to run quite nicely on AMD K6-2, Athlon, Athlon XP and Athlon MP processors). The 64 bit architecture available with Athlon 64/Opteron requires substantial changes to GT.M internals so GT.M will not currently operate in that mode. If you or anyone else does verify that GT.M runs okay in the 32 bit mode please let us know.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Has anyone run GT.M on any of the AMD 64 bit processors yet (Athlon64/Opteron) , Any issues ?
Thanks !
