AMD removed the core count suffix X2, X3 and X4 from the logo and changed its nomenclature instead: 9000 models have four cores, while the upcoming triple cores have a 7000 model number. AMD has had a difficult year. Not only did the long anticipated...

This is as good as it gets for AMD in the mainstream, but previously weve given it a smack, due to a £300+ pricetag. With it now showing up as low as £115 online - a tenner more than the 400MHz slower 5200 - a public flogging is no longer in order.It...

In the last 10 months AMD has been suffering under the Intel dominating success of the Core 2 Duo series and lately the Core 2 Quad QX6700 has left AMD with no product to match.The contender - the AMD K8L - has been delayed time and time again. On pap...
The AMD Athlon 64 series has a couple of years behind it by now - years with great success because of its strong FPU and internal memory controller. It managed to outperform both the Intel Pentium 4 and the Pentium D series, but it comes up short in co...

Everyone wants to be first, whether its land on the moon, win a race or introduce a new technology that corners the market and brings about a change on how we use things for the next ten years. Although being first has its benefits and could actually...
Price, Performance Out of Box, Mildly Overclockable, 3.0 GHz...
Mildly Overclockable, Multiplier Just About Maxed, 2MB L2 Cache, For an end user these wouldnt be cons, but for an enthusiast, they are worth a mention...
I would have loved to actually been able to run benchmarks on this processor in a true 64 bit environment. Believe me, it was tried and between freezes during benchmarks, incompatibility issues with drivers and Vista just not being all it’s cracked...

The release of this 3GHz X2 chip from AMD is a surprising one, considering the tough seven months of Core 2 supremacy the CPU giant has faced. That’s surprising in a bad way, like when you walk in on your grandmother dressing and it turns out she&rs...

The CPU landscape is really complex. Both AMD and Intel offer tons of different models. But how would today’s processors perform if they didn't have multiple cores? We take 16 different CPUs and compare them all using a single core running at 3 GHz. Ev...

With the launch of the AMD Athlon64 X2-6000 today, AMD finally hits the 3.0GHz mark. Lets start by taking a look at the CPU-Z screenshot for this CPU.As you can see, there isn’t anything new about the X2-6000+. AMD has used their older 90nm based Wi...
With regards to Overclocking, we werent expecting much to begin with as the X2-6000+ is basically the same CPU as the 5200+ with increased voltage for a higher clock speed. We were only able to go as high as 215MHz FSB which resulted in an increase of...

AMDs Athlon 64 FX-62 was launched in May 2006 and still remains the fastest AM2 processor around. We took a look at it and surmised that whilst it was fast, Intels Core 2 Extreme X6800 was better. Intel then added the quad-core whammy in November...
Whats evident is that the AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+, clocked in at 3GHz, is not the fastest CPU around. That honour falls squarely on Intels Core 2 family, headlined by Core 2 Extreme QX6700 and X6800 quad- and dual-core processors, respectively. AMDs...
