Athlon 64 X2 line extended
5th December 2006 10:33 GMT
AMD this morning rolled out its 65nm Athlon 64 X2 dual-core processors, as expected (http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2006/11/27/amd_65nm_x2_debut_5_december/). The chips are pitched as "energy efficient" products, and come in at the same price as their 90nm equivalents.
Four 65nm were added to AMD's public price list today: the Athlon 64 X2 4000+, 4400+, 4800+ and 5000+, clocked at 2.1GHz, 2.3GHz, 2.5GHz and 2.6GHz, respectively. All four contain 512KB of L2 cache. They're Socket AM2 parts.
Prices run from $169 to $301, slotting the chips in between regular 90nm Athlon 64 X2 and 90nm energy efficient Athlon 64 X2 parts.
The prices of AMD's other processors remains unchanged. ®
