AMD IS LAUNCHING its very delayed 65 nanometre products today. There are few surprises to the announcement but AMD has only just managed to get them out before 2006 ended.

Apparently AMD is attempting to retain what it believes is numbering sanity, although you'd be forgiven for thinking it's caught the same disease Intel has. All 65 nanometre products will have a 65 watt TDP and since all of the first gen products are so called X2s, you're on your own figuring it out. Single core parts will arrive in 2007 as part of AMD's "ramp".

AMD will halve clock dividers, that's 100MHz steps for you non-technical types out there. This means you will see a 2.6GHz 5000+, a 4800+ at 2.5GHz, 4400+ at 2.3GHz and a lonely 4000+ at 2.1GHz. There is no good explanation for the lack of 2.4GHz and 2.2GHz products, maybe it is sunspots or a German holiday that I am unaware of. The chips are priced at $301, $271, $214 and $169 respectively. If you are buying them in 1000s and in trays, so you have to be a tier one OEM.

Não é uma notícia detalhadíssima (hey, é o inquirer), mas é para anunciar o lançamento hoje (o hkepc também já tinha anunciado) dos ditos Rev. G.

Decerto nos próximos dias vão começar a aparecer benchies e análises várias. Não é que se espere nada de muito novo, mas é sempre vantajoso analisar novas "vantagens", como o multi decimal, possíveis revisões ao controlador de memória (Os actuais AM2 incluem ainda a primeira revisão dos controladores DDR2), consumo energético... Etc etc.

Cumps.
