AMD Athlon 64 2800+ Review
|
Posted on Thursday, April 01 2004 @ 17:32:59 CEST by LSDsmurf |
If you thought AMD was finished with lower rated Athlon 64's you were wrong. They have now released a 2800+ model running at 1.8GHz with 512KB of L2 cache costing in the $170s. Despite this release the Athlon 64 3000+ remains near the $200 mark. With the recent FX53 release their desktop Athlon 64 line runs from 1.8 to 2.4GHz which is enough of a spread to field a pretty impressive mid range to high end desktop line. We have an OEM version of the 2800+ in our labs for testing, and what follows is a comparison of it to the entire Athlon 64 line, and to the 3.2GHz P4 Northwood. In future articles we will look at overclocking, and compare to Prescott.
