AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor

Do more in less time. The industry’s evolution to multi-core processing is once again marked by AMD’s leadership and dedication to customer-centric innovation with the launch of the AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual-Core processor.

The AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual-Core processor family allows businesses and consumers to do more in less time, enabling true multi-tasking while taking client computing to a whole new level.

AMD’s leadership with multi-core processors follows the company’s success with 64-bit computing. Both innovations illustrate the strategic focus to solve customer challenges while also providing technology breakthroughs to fuel the possibilities of tomorrow.

Customers will realize an immediate benefit from AMD multi-core processors with the capability to run multimedia and security applications with increased performance, as well as enjoy new levels of multi-tasking capabilities – allowing multiple applications to run simultaneously – and an enhanced multimedia experience when using multi-threaded applications.

AMD, along with its partners, is in a technological leadership position as our client dual-core solution marks the planned, natural evolution of the AMD64 architecture, designed from the ground up and compatible with today’s 939-pin infrastructure, providing the least disruption to customers.

  • This compatibility eliminates the time and expense for platform manufacturers to redesign their components to allow for the new processors, which represent costs that would be passed on to their customers.
  • System builders will also have readily available parts to build their branded products.

AMD will continue to push the boundaries of cinematic computing with the single-core AMD Athlon™ 64 FX processor, the world’s ultimate PC processor for enthusiasts and hard-core gamers seeking high-end performance.

AMD64 Leadership: Setting the Standard

The industry is embracing the standard AMD set for x86 64-bit computing when it introduced the AMD64 platform, including the AMD Opteron™ and AMD Athlon™ 64 processors, in 2003. This platform provides leading-edge performance in both 32- and 64-bit environments.

Since the introduction of the AMD64 architecture, the AMD Opteron and the AMD Athlon 64 processors have earned more than 80 awards for innovation and performance, and the support of more than 2,000 OEMs, hardware and software developers, system builders, and distributors.

AMD is continuing to drive the industry toward pervasive, 64-bit computing with the introduction of dual-core AMD Opteron and AMD Athlon 64 processors. This AMD innovation will bring the performance and end-user benefits of multi-core computing to the market while retaining compatibility with existing x86 hardware and software standards.

AMD64 Benefits: Fulfilling the Potential

AMD64 technology with Direct Connect Architecture is the only way to take full advantage of the performance and benefits of x86, 64-bit technology while enabling a smooth transition from 32-bit computing.

AMD’s Direct Connect Architecture in all AMD64 processors helps eliminate the bottlenecks inherent in processors with the older, performance-challenged front-side bus technology.

AMD64 technology enables greater productivity on multiple applications, from mission- critical enterprise applications to business productivity, content creation and gaming applications.


AMD64: Enabling New Possibilities

The convergence of multi-core and 64-bit computing technologies will allow users to experience even greater levels of performance than currently exist today.

AMD64 technology is bringing 64-bit computing to the mainstream and its adoption will affect people in ways we can’t even imagine. By enabling end users and businesses to do things not previously possible with 32-bit computing, AMD’s vision of pervasive 64-bit computing is becoming a reality and will impact people’s day-to-day lives.
