AMD SET TO OFFER ENERGY EFFICIENT PROCESSORS

[9-inch]

So says XbitLabs:

The Energy Efficient family of dual-core Athlon 64 X2 processors will include Athlon 64 X2 3800+ with 35W TDP, which will remain single dual-core offering with such a low power consumption till Q2 2007, as well as models 3800+, 4000+, 4200+, 4400+ and 4600+ with thermal guideline of 65W. In Q3 2006 AMD is expected to introduce the model 4800+, which is expected to remain the top energy efficient offering till the Q2 2007, with similar thermal specs. Depending on the speed bin, the dual-core desktop chips from AMD now have 110W or 89W TDP. Typical dual-core chips for socket AM2 will have TDP of 89W.

Really impressive.

why do i suspect the energy efficent processors are cut down cores?

not to be a fanboy (but you must add it since you yourself did for AMD) - conroe = 65w for there dual cores and that took on AMDs chip which is 110w - 120w, whats "impressive"? and yonah already did it and clock for clock months ago, theres nothing "impressive" apart from Intel's Pentium M / P6 tech.

 

[Action_Man]

AMD never offered energy efficient processors before?

 

[gOJDO]

The 35W 3800+ is a kind of impression, but the rest is not impressive. I would like to see some K8 overperforming Core with less power, than we can say that something is impressive. Until than, stop spiting marketing around, AM2 will sux a lot as the things seems now.

I will donate a new keyboard, but bith the CAPS and SHIFT keys destoryed. I have Logitec Elite unpacked and I have no use from it, where to send?

Still, AMD’s new Athlon 64 FX-62 processor is expected to have 125W wattage whereas Extreme Edition of Conroe, also targeted at gamers, will have typical heat dissipation of 95W.

 

[mpasternak]

for my gaming. i don't give a flaming fuck difference between 65w and 55w. that 10 watts aint going to be a HUGE factor

I'm just glad that intel and amd aren't giving us more heater cores like the presshot.

damn, cold winter day... computer on full tilt.. my room will warm up in no time

Its a good sign - Intel is back to were they were before the P4

What speed was that 95w slated for? 2.93ghz?



Whats happening with AMD - are they still stuck with 90nm till the end of the year?

Now that is a foward looking statement if I ever saw one.

Your mommy must have told you to count your chickens before they hatch. :roll:

Your mom does a lot of cash in one night. Some call her "The blow job guru". She'll get one for him soon. Don't panic.

P.S: She looks really disgusting in those red stockings. Well, what else can you expect from a whore! 8)

Get some new material fanboy.

Get some new material fanboy.

Even Action Man is right sometimes. Check the experation date on the mother jokes.
