| More Details on AMD's 4x4 Unveiled |
| Sunday, 12 November 2006 02:41 |
So far AMD has been really secretive about their new "4x4" platform designed to compete with Intel's Core 2 Quad processors. (If you don't know, the 4x4 platform will let you use two dual-core CPUs on the same motherboard, giving you somewhat of an equal footing with a quad-core CPU.) Even though it's being officially released November 14, we still only have very sketchy details about how it'll all work. But AMD has revealed a few details on the 4x4 platform at a PR event in Munich. Obviously a new platform supporting two processors will require a new chipset, and sources are saying it will be provided by NVIDIA, so it will probably be a version of the nForce 600 chipsets they just released for Intel. AMD will release the 4x4 platform along with three new FX processors, the FX-70, FX-72, and FX-74 (2.6GHz, 2.8GHz, and 3.0GHz, respectively, with 2MB of L2 cache), with an FX-76 (3.2GHz) coming up in the middle of next year. Experts are concerned (for good reason) about how well both processors can be used. Windows Vista Ultimate is the only version that will support more than one physical processor, while all version will support multiple cores on the same processor. This puts Intel's single-package solution at an advantage. Nevertheless, we should be seeing more multi-threaded applications now that single-core processors are old news.
