AMD plans to release three new FX CPUs in November.
We still don’t have a solid date but we think it might be even sooner than we expected as Intel will announce its quad stuff on the 1st of November.
The slowest of the three - the FX 70 - is a 2P Socket F 1207 pin CPU with the hypertransport bus clocked at 2000MHz, the CPU at 2.6GHz and two times 1 MB cache memory on a CPU.
The faster one, the Athlon FX 72, has the same specs but just works at 2.8GHz while the last and fastest one is the FX 74 at 3GHz speed. All three CPUs have a thermal dissipation of 125W.
They are based on Windsor dual core, 90 nanometre on SOI. They should last at least till the end of Q3 2007 when they will be replaced with quad cores, scheduled for Q3 announcement.
A fonte vale o que vale, como de costume, mas à falta de melhor...
Anyway, se isto se confirmar mesmo, estava à espera disto em 65nm... Uma maneira de aproveitar os FX "em armazém"? Nem mesmo eu acredito na minha teoria, já que são Socket F (1207), e não os estou a ver a armazenar só o die... Oh well.
Cumps.
