These will be part of a new high-end desktop platform code-named Dragon. And at the Consumer Electronics Show in January, AMD will announce its first 45nm desktop chips, Phenom IIs, at speeds up to 3.0GHz. The new Athlon 64 with dual core technology has been baptized Athlon 64 X2, while the. Last month, AMD shipped its first 45nm chips, quad-Core Opteron processors for servers. AMD has recently announced their new dual core CPUs, lauching solutions for both desktop and server markets.

Like the current Phenom processors, the Athlon X2 7000 series is manufactured at 65nm. In the press materials, AMD states that the new processors have "strong OEM support" and "well-known manufacturers are expected to offer new desktop PCs featuring AMD Athlon X2 7000 series processors," though it gave no details. K-10 based Regor was launched which is a dual-core version of the Athlon II.

It was designed from scratch as native dual-core by using an already multi-CPU enabled Athlon 64, joining it with another functional core on one die, and connecting both via a shared dual-channel memory controller/north bridge and additional control logic. As you might guess from the price, these chips will show up in low-end desktops based on Cartwheel consumer platform, which also includes the AMD 780G chipset and ATI Radeon 3200 integrated graphics. The Phenom II processor was introduced by AMD and brought the company back. The Athlon 64 X2 is the first native dual-core desktop central processing unit (CPU) designed by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). There are two Athlon X2 7000 series processors: the 2.5GHz Athlon X2 7550, which is only available to computer manufacturers, and a 2.7GHz Athlon X2 7750 Black Edition, which is priced at $79. Coming clocked at 3.2GHz the AMD Athlon II X2 260 features two megabytes of L2 cache shared. Although there had been many news reports speculating on a dual-core chip code-named Kuma, the X2 7000 series did not appear on the client processor roadmap that AMD presented at its analyst day last month. The AMD Athlon II X2 260 (P/N ADX2600CK23GM) is the fastest dual core processor in the Athlon II series. The Athlon X2 7000 series are the first dual-core processors that use the 10h design, which means that like Phenoms, they have three levels of cache and support HyperTransport 3.0.

The initial model numbers in the new family include the 4200+, 4400+, 4600+ and 4800+ (2.2GHz to 2.4GHz).The processors are based on AMD64 technology and are compatible with the existing base of x86 software, whether single-threaded or multithreaded. Until now, the dual-core Athlon processors were based on an older K8 design, while the triple-core Phenom X3 and quad-core Phenom X4 use a newer design often referred to as K10, though AMD calls it 10h. AMD also announced its line of desktop dual-core processors, the AMD Athlon 64 X2 processor family. The Athlon X2 7000 series is designed for budget desktops. 2,600,000,000 1,000,000,000 16-Core SPARC T3 Six-Core Core i7 Six-Core Xeon 7400 10-Core Xecn Westmere-EX Dual-Core ltanium 8-Core POWER7 2 POWER6 AMD K10. AMD has released its first dual-core processors based on a design that is similar to that of the Phenom quad-core processors.
