- AMD Opteron 6200 series (Fam15h, with full IOMMU support in
libreboot - *highly recommended - fast, and works well without
microcode updates, including virtualization*)
- AMD Opteron 6300 series (Fam15h, with full IOMMU support in
libreboot. *AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE - virtualization is broken

virtualization. You can get these by adding them to the coreboot
image, or by loading it from your linux kernel
- NOTE: 6300 series CPUs have buggy microcode built-in, and
libreboot recommends avoiding the updates. The 6200 series CPUs
have more reliable microcode. Look at this errata datasheet:
