AMD Phenom II X4 955 CPU Coming on April 20th
|
AMD was planning to launch 3.1GHz Phenom II X4 950 in Q2 according to our previous source, but Phenom II X4 955 is said to replace it as the fastest AMD CPU.

Phenom II X4 950 at 3.1GHz to rise in Q2
|
AMD officially announced its 45nm processor Phenom II Series on January 8th, and there were only two models of CPU at that time, that is Phenom II X4 920 of 2.8 GHz and Phenom II X4 940 of 3.0GHz
.
Expected to be released in Q2 this year, Phenom II X4 950 only offers 100MHz higher clock (improved from 3.0GHz to 3.1GHz). The other specs of Phenom II X4 950 are the same as that of Phenom II X4 920/940: 8MB total cache, 125W TDP and Socket AM2+. For now, the M.S.R.P of Phenom II X4 940 is $275. Considering changes of market condition, Phenom II X4 950 should be priced lower when it actually reaches store.

Phenom II B clocks revealed
|
AMDs business CPUs will clock all the way to 2.9GHz. The slowest dual cores branded as Athlon X2 B21 will work at 2.7GHz and this is 2MB L2 CPU based on Regor 45nm dual core. Athlon X2 B23 will be the faster iteration of this CPU clocked at 2.9GHz. These CPUs will feature a TDP of under 65W.
The three-core Phenom II X3 B71, based on Heka three-core, will run at 2.8GHz and it comes with 7.5MB of cache. The faster one is Phenom II X3 B73 and this one works at 2.8GHz, all under a 95W TDP design.
The quad-core business CPUs are Phenom II X4 B91 with 2.6GHz core clocke and 8MB of total cache and this Deneb based CPU will also fit to under 95W TDP. The faster business Phenom is AMD Phenom II X4 B93 and this CPU will reach 2.8GHz.
They are all set to launch in early Q3 2009.

AMD Phenom II gets closer
|
MoreComputers.com added a listing for a pair of the new Phenom II processors. The listings show that the Phenom II are to debut in 2.8GHz and 3.0GHz models, the 920 and 940 Black Edition.
The AMD Phenom II X4 920 is said to be going for about £190, while the X4 940 Black Edition comes out at £230. With faster clock speeds and bigger levels of cache, it may be that we'll get to see a real clash of the titans new year in the consumer microprocessor market. Nonetheless, we will have to keep a close eye out for Phenom II performance benchmarks at the beginning of next year.

AMD Phenom II, Overclocks To 5+GHz
|
Dragon platform is a combination of an AMD Phenom II X4 processor, Radeon 4800 Graphics cards and an AMD 7 series chipset based motherboard.
However, today’s discussion was keenly focused on AMD's upcoming Phenom II X4 processor, two models of which will launch in early January that will be socket AM2+ compatible. In addition, some time in Q1, AMD will launch new AM3 socket Phenom II X4 processors with support for DDR3-1333 memory. In the short term, (read CES ’08 time frame release) specifically, there will be two chips available with clock speeds starting at 2.8GHz but with a lot of headroom for future clock speed ramps as well as some heavy duty overclocking. In addition, with the transition to 45nm fab process technology for Phenom II, AMD is claiming a 30 – 40% power consumption reduction under full load and up to a 50% reduction under idle conditions.
Things certainly seem to be heating up in Austin and the transition to 45nm for AMD seems to be progressing quite well. We’ll be offering a full performance evaluation and showcase of AMD’s new Phenom II processor in the weeks ahead, so stay tuned.

Phenom II naming scheme and launch plans
|
AMD has dropped the plan of releasing any 45nm Phenoms before the end of this year but is readying a full line-up of processors for next year. Set to debut at CES, the Phenom II family includes the X4 900, 800 (Deneb) and 600 (Propus), X3 700 (Heka) and 600 (Rana) plus the X2 200 (Regor) series CPUs.
In Q1, AMD is expected to introduce no less than 8 processors, two of them, the Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition (3.0 GHz) and 920 (2.8 GHz) being AM2+ parts. The DDR3-supporting AM3 line-up will debut with the X4 925 (2.8 GHz), 910 (2.6 GHz), X4 810 (2.6 GHz), 805 (2.5 GHz), X3 720 (2.8 GHz) and 710 (2.6 GHz). The prices of these models are still unknown but hopefully their'll be very competitive.
The Phenom II X3 600 and X2 200s are set to become available in Q2.

AMD to release Phenom II in January
|
AMD told analysts yesterday that Phenom II X4 would be launched at CES 2009 in January. This Shanghai-based desktop product of the Deneb core, will serve as a launching platform for AMD's new industry focus, which is on value and mainstream and markedly away from enterprise. AMD's executives also stated that Intel's Nehalem-based Core i7 is out of touch with the marketplace.
The Dragon platform
The Phenom II X4 will be released along with an enthusiast platform called "Dragon." Like the server version announced yesterday, the desktop Phenom II will be a quad-core processor with 8 MB cache (6 MB shared L3, 512 KB L2 per core), support for DDR2 and DDR3 memory. Dragon will provide a range of graphics options from low-end to a "terascale graphics engine," overdrive CPU control and a Fusion optimization tool.
AMD comments on Intel Core i7
AMD's Bob Grim, senior manager of product marketing for AMD's desktop group, categorized Intel's Core i7 as being out of touch with the marketplace. He said, "Expensive motherboards, expensive memory...all expectations says that the processor will be expensive as well." Intel's Core i7 processors priced at $294 for 2.66 GHz, $562 for 2.93 GHz and $999 for 3.20 GHz. See Intel's pricing page.
