Back in October of last year, Athlon introduced its first Athlon II X3 triple-core processors, the 425 and 435. Working with the less than perfect yields from the Deneb and Propus dies, the Rana die was born. As yields improve, the processors can become more stable at higher clock speeds. In January 2010, the Athlon-II X3-440 was released; a 100MHz speed bump on the X3-435 processor. Now AMD is bumping the speed up by another 100MHz with the release of the X3-445 and the X3-450 is slated to come out later on this year. In this article Benchmark Reviews is closely examining the Athlon-II X3-445 ADX445WFK32GM to see what kind of power can be harnessed from this low-priced, triple-core, potentially unlockable 3.1GHz processor, especially when paired with AMDs newest 890G chipset.

AMD's Athlon II X2 240 is set out to deliver a best-in-class experience for less than $60. Even though it has only two cores it can deliver in many benchmarks including gaming. Its attractive price point and undervolting capabilities also make it an interesting choice for a budget oriented media PC setup.

AMD's latest generation of graphics cards offers unprecedented single GPU performance levels. Such performance requires an optimum environment, especially important is PCI-Express bandwidth. We investigate if these cards can still deliver on a PCI-E x8, x4 or even x1 link.

"Moving ahead today though, Phenom II is one of the most versatile processors, due to its dual mode memory controller. You can easily put a Phenom II processor into any AM2+ motherboard and use it with DDR2 memory or AM3 based motherboard and run it on DDR3 memory and this is one thing AMD definitely got right.
AMD's own marketing strategy for Phenom II is for high-end market, and it leaves a gap for the mainstream segment, but not anymore we see. Today AMD has its newest addition to the K10 family out using the Athlon naming, which gave them such a good hit all those years ago. Introducing the first quad-core mainstream CPU from AMD, which is dubbed the Athlon II X4. We have the 620 model with us here today - how well does it perform? What does it offer? Let's find out!"

Quietly and so far no major announcement, AMD has taken these days a new processor on the market. Namentlich handelt es sich hierbei um den AMD Athlon II X4 620, einen Quad-Core der - wie die die Namensgebung schon andeutet - unterhalb der "Phenom"-Familie angesiedelt sein soll, dennoch aber immerhin ?ber vier Kerne verf?gt. In particular, it is settled this is the AMD Athlon X4 620, a quad-core of suggesting - as the name already - below the "Phenom" family should be, nevertheless, has at least four cores. Wir haben uns kurzerhand bei einem der vielen Hdndler ( Athlon II X4 620 Preisvergleich ) eine der CPUs bestellt und unter die Lupe genommen. We have ordered us simply at one of the many dealers (Athlon X4 620 comparison) one of the CPUs and put under the microscope.
