AMD today expanded their low-voltage mobile processors lineup with the launch of the Mobile AMD Athlon 64 3000+ CPU for thin and light notebooks.

The Mobile AMD Athlon 64 processor 3000+ for thin and light notebooks is the first new processor model manufactured with AMD’s 90 nanometer production process, which enables higher performance without increased power consumption.

Global PC vendor Acer Inc. has upgraded their popular Ferrari brand notebook with the new Mobile AMD Athlon 64 processor 3000+ for thin and light notebooks.

"Acer continues to work with AMD to deliver the latest technology, highest performance and leading-edge security to notebook PC consumers worldwide," said Lutz Schoppe, Acer’s business director for notebooks in Europe and the Americas. "Sales of our Ferrari branded notebooks have exceeded our expectations, attracting enthusiasts and building the Acer brand. We expect similar results for the new Ferrari 3400 model based on the Mobile AMD Athlon 64 processor 3000+ for thin and light notebooks."

The Ferrari 3400 notebook is expected to be available from Acer in Europe during September, with worldwide availability to follow in October.

The Mobile AMD Athlon 64 processor 3000+ for thin and light notebooks is available immediately worldwide and is priced at $241 in 1,000-unit quantities.
