AMD is now fairly competitive with Intel after its recent price cuts, but this last addition to the K8 family doesn’t send the ageing architecture out with a bang. That’s not to say it’s a particularly bad processor, it’s just not...
The AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ processor is now the fastest dual-core socket AM2 processor that AMD has to offer and comes with the most agressive price we have ever seen on a flagship part. ...
Abstract: A new Athlon 64 X2 top model launches, squeezing 3.0 GHz out of AMDs 90 nm silicon. It cannot end Intels Core 2 Extreme supremacy, but AMDs aggressive pricing fuels the price war, making the 6000+ somewhat affordable.
Theres nothing too surprising about AMDs Athlon 64 X2 6000+ but it is more than likely a fitting conclusion to consumer level K8 processors. It is the fastest Socket AM2 processor and should beat all of Intels processors except the E6700 and E6800 a...
Abstract: Near the end of 2006, AMD began releasing new versions of its Athlon 64 X2 processors. These new processor versions were the first AMD desktop chips to be manufactured using a 65 nanometer process. The move to 65nm has allowed AMD to reduce the costs a...
Relatively low cost for the top single-socket AM2 CPU from AMD.
Not as speedy in most things as Intels Core 2 Duo E6700; higher power consumption.
AMD ships a 3.0GHz CPU that cant keep up with Intels midrange processor in most benchmarks, but its still a decent CPU at a relatively affordable price. ...
Fastest AMD Desktop CPU, 3.0 GHz for under $500, AM2 Upgrade Compatible
Still 90nm, Nonstandard DDR2 Speeds
The Athlon 64 X2 6000+ launch is anticlimactic in some areas, as a 200 MHz increase to the existing Athlon 64 FX architecture can only yield a finite performance gain. That does supply new Athlon 64 X2 high water marks in most performance benchmarks, ...
AMDs two old-school tricks, the price cut and the clock speed bump, have combined to give the Athlon 64 X2 6000+ a pretty good value proposition. Performance-wise, the X2 6000+ is slower overall than the Core 2 Duo E6700, but not by much. That may be ...
Frankly speaking the launch of the new AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ processor is not a very big event. Until promising new cores based on K8L micro-architecture come out, AMD will hardly be able to surprise us with anything. After the launch of Intel Core 2 ...
Abstract: AMD has been fairly quiet as of late. A few months ago, we took a look at their initial Quad-FX platform and FX-70 series offerings. However,on the mainstream socket AM2 front, AMD hasnt made any real noise since the release of the Athlon 64 FX-62 way bac...
