AMD Phenom Architecture and Stats

The test focuses on the difference of core architecture, so all the frequency are set to the same. As before, we are using a unlocked ES version Phenom X4. - ExpReview

AMD Phenom is the AMD processor line based on the K10 microarchitecture. It is manufactured in 65nm process at Fab36 in Dresden, and the main features are something that it calls Native Quad-Core, and HyperTransport 3. Belive me AMD phenom is awesome and id love it if someone gave me one of these chips. AMD phenom is faster/clock then Penryn and also more energy efficient, while Penryn will have higher released speeds AMD will have pretty good 2. I think desktop version is supposed to come out in NOV. New cpus will be able to turn off cores(I think Phenom is supposed to do this) and save alot of power(well more at lease).

The first benchmark listed on AMD's website is called VMmark Performance. For enthusiasts who demand high performance on their system, AMD Phenom FX processors are designed for systems that offer extreme megatasking capabilities. Low Power Server CPU Shoot-out AMD is clearly the leader in performance per watt. Yes, it's a lot of e-peen stuff over basically 2 to 5% more performance.

AMD is currently competing on price, and it is showing in the bottom line. A price affordable Black Edition instead of Phenom FX would also be what customers want. AMD would not comment on price cuts for its Athlon line but many predict more AMD price cuts coming.

Offering state-of-the-art platforms and a next-generation architecture with expected availability in Q1 2008. Availability of AMD Processors to Improve in March. Price and availability are unknown as of now, but you'll know as soon as we do.

AMD Phenom is going on sale this 19th Nov. AMD Phenom is around the bend fast.
