AMD Athlon II X4 640

Last week, AMD released six new Athlon II processors aimed at solidifying their presence in the mid-range market. Included in the release were two new quad-core CPUs, two tri-core CPUs and two dual-core units. Here at Bjorn3D we were lucky enough to score AMD's new top of the line Athlon II processor, the Athlon II X4 640. The 640 is the first Athlon II X4 to clock in at 3.0GHz, a slight increase over the X4 635 that is clocked at 2.9GHz. With a brand new 880-series chipset motherboard now in hand, let's see what kind of numbers the X4 640 can crank out. Although we only have the X4 640 in hand, the other five CPUs that AMD released are definitely worth taking note of. Three of the new processors are deemed "Energy Efficient" by AMD and are designated by an "e" at the end of the model name. The three new "e" models are all 45W max TDP designs, whereas the new X4 and X3 are 95W models, and the X2 is of the 65W flavor. Just like their siblings, these new CPUs are AM3 and AM2+ compatible. A new 800-series motherboard and one of these new processors will go hand in hand for a nice budget build, but will still fulfill the needs of those looking for great performance.

AMD Athlon II X4 640: 4-Cores On The Cheap

We are officially declaring May 11, 2010 "Athlon II" day. Why you ask? Because AMD is launching a total of six new Athlon II processors today, including a new flagship model, targeted squarely at budget conscious consumers. We should point out, however, that all six of the processors launching today feature existing core microarchitectures. While they do differ from previous offerings in terms of frequency, and of course their model names, all of the new Athlon II processors arriving today are based on the same Propus (X4), Regor (X2), and Rana (X3) cores that were introduced a few months back. The new line-up of Athlon II processors AMD is introducing today consists of the following products: We got our hands on the new flagship Athlon II X4, the 3.0GHz Athlon II X4 640, and have its performance results posted on the pages ahead. Before we get to the numbers though, take a moment to peruse its specifications in table below... As we have already mentioned, the new Athlon II X4 isn't based on a new core and doesn't feature any new technology. As such, we won't go into detail on the Athlon II architecture again here and will instead offer up this performance quick-take.
