AMD Athlon II X4 620 - Quad-Core at $99
 

Last month, AMD became the first company to bring a $99 quad-core processor to market, the Athlon II X4 620. The question, of course, is whether or not it delivers. At 2.60GHz, it looks to offer ample performance, but the lack of an L3 cache is sure to be seen in some of our tests. Luckily, the chip's overclocking-ability helps negate that issue. http://techgage.com/article/amd_athl...ad-core_at_99/
