Socket Fr2 socket: CPUs, chipsets and cooler fit
Socket Fr2 is the AMD 1207-land server socket infrastructure for embedded Opteron processors. It carries 1207 lands for LGA packages. AMD documentation lists Fr2 infrastructure as compatible with F, Fr2, Fr5 and Fr6 package processors.
Quick facts
| Maker | AMD |
|---|---|
| Package type | LGA |
| Contacts | 1,207 |
| Package size | n/a |
| Introduced | April 2009 |
| Status | Legacy |
| Memory | DDR2 ECC registered, board dependent |
| PCIe from the CPU | HyperTransport links; PCIe from the board chipset |
| Cooler mounting holes | Board specific (server heatsink) |
| Replaces | Socket F |

Overview
The socket matters for this batch because the Opteron 13QS HE and 13KS EE are embedded Suzuka quads at 71 W and 50 W from April 2009. Both carry 4 by 512 KB of L2 cache with 6 MB of shared L3 cache. Board support comes from embedded vendors with DDR2 ECC memory.
Because chipset pairing for these embedded SKUs stays board specific, this file carries no per-codename chipset claim and CPU pages show the neutral compatibility sentence. Standard Suzuka quads for single CPU servers live on Socket AM3 instead.
Processor generations
| Codename | Marketing name | Years | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Suzuka | Opteron 13QS and 13KS embedded | 2009 | K10 quad parts with 4 by 512 KB of L2 cache and 6 MB shared L3 for embedded servers, including the 2.4 GHz 13QS HE at 71 W and the 2.0 GHz 13KS EE at 50 W from April 2009. |
| Barcelona | Opteron 2300 and 8300 server quads | 2007 to 2008 | K10 server quads with 4 by 512 KB of L2 cache and 2 MB shared L3 in Socket F packages that seat in Fr2 infrastructure, including the 2.3 GHz 2356 at 95 W and the 2.0 GHz HE parts at 79 W from 2008. |
Who Socket Fr2 serves
Socket Fr2 fits embedded servers that keep one firmware image across storage controllers. The 13QS HE at 2.4 GHz suits controllers that burst, while the 13KS EE at 2.0 GHz suits always on control planes at 50 W. Both need the vendor stepping list because retail desktop boards never list them.
Memory and cooling
Memory on Fr2 is DDR2 ECC registered through the board design. Even populations keep storage latency predictable. Expansion and display hang off the board chipset because these CPUs provide no PCIe lanes or graphics.
Cooling uses vendor qualified server heatsinks with threaded backplates. The 50 W and 71 W envelopes suit 1U chassis with directed airflow, and mounting pressure follows the board maker specification.

Is Socket Fr2 the same as Socket F?
Fr2 is the 1207-land infrastructure revision that accepts F, Fr2, Fr5 and Fr6 package processors per AMD documentation. Standard Socket F boards overlap heavily, so check the vendor CPU list.
What memory does Socket Fr2 use?
DDR2 ECC registered memory through the board design on 1207-land server boards.
How many PCIe lanes does Socket Fr2 provide?
No lanes come from these CPUs. HyperTransport links tie the CPU to the board chipset, while PCIe slots hang off the chipset.
