	AMD Athlon Processor Comparison Guide - Icrontic.com
		Though it might seem like AMD is letting their Socket F fall by the wayside with the sluggish introduction of the F+ socket, this is simply not the case; instead, the lag time between the workstation release of HT3.0-compliant silicon for the AM2+ platform and the Socket F-platform has to do with SMP certification.
		All told, however, AMD has done an admirable job at solidifying their offerings in the upcoming years; giving a true weight to the Opteron line in the last 16 months, and granting the FX line a role other than the oft-overlooked big brother of the Athlon 64 were necessary and welcomed steps.
		Despite AMD's efforts to keep up with Intel, the 4x4 debut this yule season will be a token gesture for people who have read this guide, and are aware that impressive heat and cost-saving die shrinks are coming to the Athlon FX line in the first half of 2007.

	Review: AMD Athlon 64 Dual Core X2 4400+
		The AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ is the cheapest Toledo core dual core 64 bit CPU.
		The AMD dual core CPU's perform about 50% faster than the single-core versions of the Athlon 64 at the same frequencies.
		Power requirements, at 110 watts, are within the upper range of single core AMD 64 chips; AMD has reduced power consumption in several ways, although some of the power savings come from the slightly lowered clock speeds.

	bit-tech.net \| AMD Athlon 64 FX-60
		At that time, AMD stated that the Athlon 64 FX would still be targeted at the gamers and would be the fastest CPU for gaming.
		Processors had only been available for four weeks, as AMD announced that the Athlon 64 X2 would be available from the first week in June.
		Today, AMD has changed things a little, and this is probably the biggest shift they've made since the launch of Athlon 64.

	AMD renovates Athlon 64 \| CNET News.com
		The move to a smaller cache basically shows that AMD is on track with the Athlon 64, because the company had planned to move to a smaller cache as clock speeds increased, one executive at the company said.
		Meanwhile, AMD is expected to use Newcastle as the basis for higher Athlon 64 model numbers in the future.
		AMD is also preparing a new kind of package used to install a chip in a PC.

		AMD also changed Athlon's cache from 2-way set associative to 16-way set associative, meaning the core should not need to access the slower system memory as often.
		Athlon 4 was later released to the desktop market, workstations, and multiprocessor servers (with its true dual processor support).
		AMD continued to use the Palomino core until the release of the Athlon XP 2100+, which was the last Palomino.

		This chip is the successor to the formidable K7 core, known to most as the AMD Athlon processor.
		AMD's caches tend to be exclusive, and that's the case with Hammer; these caches don't replicate the contents of the L1 cache.
		When AMD delayed the Athlon 64's launch this past spring, the company cited difficulties producing chips in volume using SOI technology as the primary culprit and had to turn to IBM for assistance.

	AMD Athlon 800 Review
		Don't expect AMD to lie down either, future Athlon CPU's will continue to get faster, much to the delight of bargain hunters looking for the next CPU to overclock, and to the distaste of hardcore consumers who want to have the fastest CPU available.
		With their relationship with AMD back on, Gateway now has an additional supply option to work with in case the Intel well runs dry again.
		Just think, in the CPU market AMD challenges Intel on the low-end with its K6-2 line (Remember Intel's accelerated Celeron release during the first half of last year?) and on the high-end, AMD's Athlon is winning the hearts of journalists, analysts, and (most importantly) OEM's worldwide.

	ITworld.com - UPDATE: AMD launches Athlon XP 2400+, 2600+ processors
		The processors are built using AMD's 0.13-micron Thoroughbred core, like the previous fastest 2200+ processor, which was the first AMD chip to use the core and appeared in June this year.
		AMD cedes the megahertz lead to Intel in just about all its chips, and generally uses a smaller front-side bus to connect the chip to the main memory and smaller L2 cache for extra on-chip memory.
		AMD is planning to release a 64-bit Athlon chip for the desktop based on its Clawhammer technology around the end of the year, which will be "a total change" in the PC market, said deFrere.

	Ars Technica: AMD's Athlon: Paranoia realized (8/99) - Page 1
		AMD has clearly chosen not to attempt to follow in Intel's footsteps with this design, nor have they concocted an entirely proprietary new scheme to solve each design problem.
		AMD claims the Athlon's EV6-based system bus will ramp up fairly easily from 200 to 400MHz (and beyond), and its point-to-point topology should allow better peak transfer rates in multiprocessor systems.
		AMD plans to transition Athlon production to.18-micron process technology in the second half of this year.

	[H] Enthusiast - AMD Athlon 64 X2 Preview
		Today AMD is allowing us to share a preview of their upcoming 939-pin dual core processor that will be officially named the "AMD Athlon 64 X2" series.
		Below we see a flow chart for our AMD Athlon 64 X2, which is also extremely similar to the dual core Opteron, but with fewer HyperTransport bus connections.
		Where AMD differs a tremendous amount from Intel in the dual core department is that AMD did not just "glue" two of their high performance processors together.

	AMD to unveil Athlon XP - Oct. 9, 2001
		AMD also has been stung by the loss of some key customers recently, including IBM and Gateway, which have opted to build their systems exclusively with Intel processors.
		In recent years, AMD and Intel had engaged in a fierce battle of one-upmanship, each trying to outdo the other with incremental increases in microprocessor clock speeds as they vied for the title of microprocessor king.
		AMD recently shifted its focus away from megahertz, instead emphasizing architectural features it says enables its chips to outperform Intel's speediest chips in many common computing tasks.

	[H] Enthusiast - AMD Athlon 64 4000+ & FX-55
		AMD's Athlon FX series CPU gets a bump in core speed while the Athlon 64 sees a doubling of L2 cache.
		This is undoubtedly what has given AMD the ability to scale the clock of their flagship another 200MHz.
		Their plans for the processor line have changed dramatically since its inception, and now calling an old FX-53 an Athlon 64 4000+ seems to be a disservice to consumers that are trying to fight through all of the FUD that is produced on a daily basis.

	AMDZone :: The real #1 source for AMD news, reviews, and info. Est 1998.
		Comparing the Pentium D Extreme Edition to the Athlon 64 dual core AMD is quick to point out the bandwidth restrictions the older Intel bus uses that in effect cripples their multi CPU package which many have pointed out was a knee jerk reaction by Intel and not a true dual core CPU.
		AMD's 8th generation CPU was designed from the beginning to be multi CPU and multi core friendly and has the bandwidth to handle not only 2, but 4 cores.
		Again AMD illustrates the architectural advantages of as well as the benefits of having an existing CPU platform, and a wide choice of components.

	The AMD Athlon Processor
		The AMD Athlon has a large dual-ported 128KB split-L1 cache (64KB instruction cache + 64KB data cache); a two-way, 2048-entry branch prediction table; multiple parallel x86 instruction decoders; and multiple integer and floating point schedulers for independent superscalar, out-of-order, speculative execution of instructions.
		A logical one or zero is represented respectively by two voltage levels or the two states of a transistorized electronic switch (on or off like a light switch; a 1 or 0 in the binary number system, which, in turn, can be used to represent characters, decimal numbers, instructions, etc.).
		Up to three MacroOPs, Athlon instructions, are sent from the decoders to the ICU per CPU cycle.

		Like Intel, AMD seems to be having a hard time getting motherboard manufacturers to read the temperatures from the internal diode rather than an external one however.
		When AMD introduced the Athlon XP on the OPGA (organic pin grid array) substrate they alleviated many of the problems seen by some Athlon and Duron owners (overzealous heatsink application could crack the processor in two).
		One nice thing is that AMD unlike intel, has never locked the multiplier of their CPU's so the enthusiasts have always been able to push their CPU's to the fullest.

		The Athlon XP processor represents a lot of build-up for AMD and a new challenge as AMD's marketing department looks to beat out the general public's impression that clock speed is everything.
		From this you can see that AMD not only needed a way to distinguish their slower clock speed chips from Intel's higher ones but, they also needed to distinguish the Athlon XP from their own existing chips.
		In Pricewatch on 10/9, the new Athlon XPs were at $122, $148, $169, and $225 for the 1500+, 1600+, 1700+, and 1800+ respectively.
