| AMD might introduce their 65nm CPU's in 2007 On the forum of Chinese website HKEPC you can find a series of slides with the Athlon 64 roadmap, on the map you can see that AMD plans to release their 65nm parts early next year. These processors have the codename "Brisbane" and are probably nothing more than a die-shrink of the Windsor. The Windsor will most likely be introduced in June 2006, this puppy will support DDR2 and needs it a new socket: AM2. The current crop of S939 Processors will be available until the end of 2006. Whether they will receive another speed bump is not clear. What is clear is that AMD will introduce AM2 version of all their current S939 editions. These will be based on the Orleans core and will probably be the last of the single-core Athlons. The new AM2 line will be expanded with a 2.8Ghz Athlon 64 FX-62, 2.6Ghz Athlon 64 X2 5000+ with 2x512Kb L2 cache; and also one with 2x1Mb L2-cache named the Athlon 64 X2 5200+. Support for socket 754 will stop by the end of 2006, the Sempron processors line however will live on. This year AMD will introduce new ones based on the Manila core, which also use the AM2 socket and DDR2. In the 2nd half of 2007 we might see the 65nm version which AMD calls the "Sparta" core.

| There is no excuse not to save your money now for the new motherboard and processor; or buy a pair of 2GB DDR2 now when the price is still low
