 | AM2 3500+ Performance Preview After the phenomenal success of Athlon64, AMD’s upcoming socket AM2 based CPUs are certainly riding on high expectations. From what we know, these CPUs are supposed to be launched at Computex this year which leaves AMD about a month to go. These “new” CPUs are basically the same Athlon64 CPUs that we see and use everyday, except the memory controller has been upgraded by AMD to support DDR2 modules

|  Not setting the world on fire but admittedly everything was beta. Maybe production units will be better but still, early adopters beware. I might just wait for the revision2 CPU's in 2007.... |
