Der bliver snakket meget om AMD's kommende AM2 setup. Er det bare en løsning for endelig at få bragt DDRII på banen, eller har AMD virkelig noget nyt at byde på her?
Lancerings-datoen er blevet skubbet, i hvert fald ifølge rygterne. Man havde håbet at se den nye sokkel på CeBIT, men nu siger rygterne at det bliver skubbet til Juni. Mon AMD stadig udvikler på den?
Vi forventer at se meget mere til den på CeBIT, det er helt sikkert!
"It was already clear the new CPU would require DDR2 memory, but it appears AMD is also using this architecture change to upgrade the current mounting scheme for Athlon 64 heatsink/fans. The new design is certainly very secure - more stable than the current design - but there are very few existing heatsink/fans that will work on the new cage. From Socket 754, 940, and 939 the same heatsinks have all worked on all Athlon 64 sockets. With AM2 that compatibility basically ends. " http://anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=2688&p=1
