AMD Athlon 64 FX-60 Review

Posted on 2006-01-10 13:14:13 by LSDsmurf

After today’s launch of the FX-60, there will be no faster Socket-939 CPUs produced. Instead, everything else will be Socket-AM2 (the new name for Socket-M2). Next quarter AMD will launch their Socket-AM2 platform along with AM2 versions of the Athlon 64, Athlon 64 X2 and the FX-62. Given that the AM2 platform adds DDR2 support, it is entirely feasible that the Athlon 64 FX-62 won’t receive a clock speed bump over the FX-60 and just use the higher bandwidth memory as justification for the higher model number..
