It seems that we begin to know and the first data on the new AMD chips, which so far have called Zambezi or Bulldozer, as these are the code names of the processor microarchitecture and throughout its development. Today we already know the names and characteristics of the first four models will go on sale over the coming weeks.
It is sold under the product family AMD FX-Series, traditionally its range of high-end products for the domestic sector, and as expected its new more powerful models. The main features speak of 8, 6 or 4-core, 32-nanometer dual channel DDR3 (Dual Channel) and under the new socket AM3 +.
I leave you with a list of new models and the number of cores. Certain specifications are still unknown as the clock frequency or margin Core Turbo mode, data likely to be confirmed once they are presented: All models Black Edition, that is, they are unlocked so the user can overclock at will .
We had already talked about earlier and it looks to finally end up as well. AMD Bulldozer will rise from the current Intel Core i7 'Sandy Bridge', and in fact suggest that some media will be more powerful than Intel's flagship model, the 2600K. We talked about a comparison between the cutting edge of high-end AMD with Intel, as Sandy Bridge are at the end thereof.
we know that Intel is voracious in its high-end range, the clearest example being the last 990x. In fact it seems that AMD has the most powerful processor on the market - will assume that the AMD FX-8130P - will not last long, and will be in the hands of Intel. The new generation of Intel Core enthusiasts are expected to fall under the code name Sandy Bridge EP, and all indications are that AMD will have to surrender to his feet, at least in terms of raw power.
One of the features that was missing was that AMD had stalled in the manufacturing process of 45 nanometers, while competition - Intel - had already passed that stage and even improved. Intel introduced the 45 nm. in 2008 and jumped to 32 just over a year, with the first Core i3. It was inevitable that this aspect AMD evolve sooner or later, and the AMD FX-Series will be the first to 32 nanometers.
Just over a year late because Intel is usually the company that innovates and AMD which follows the path marked out by it. A user-level manufacturing process usually has some impact, but generally is given little importance and is not an issue to be taken into account, at least a majority.
AMD FX-Series will not be as current Phenom II, with a max around 250 euros. The new models will have a range exceeding the high end of the 1100T and company. We'll see how he manages to compete against AMD 2600K, whose price is around 280 euros. Have to make adjustments that hopefully are beneficial to the consumer.
Similarly it is likely to withdraw many old Phenom II models, as their current prices would come into dispute with the new models. If AMD is the Phenom II and raises the price of the new FX Intel Bulldozer then offer more competitive figures. And we all know that traditionally has not happened.
First of all I must remind you that none of this is official, but it has views to be real because the data are repeated over and over again, unchanged. In recent years we have experienced this situation many times, and finally after presentation confirmed the rumors. Regarding the release date being considered two dates.
On one hand, said that in summer, but after the incident with the theme of Intel P67 and SATA began to say that the launch be brought forward. How long? Well it is not known with confidence. My personal opinion is that little or no advance, and present them in June or July. Bonus: continuing the Bulldozer catalog will tell you we are mounting that the picture accompanying this post is a Caterpillar D9 property and called the Israeli army Caterpillar D9 IDF.
