FUD Zilla reports two Propus processors are now available. These new chips from AMD are quad-cores without L3 cache, the Athlon II X4 620 is clocked at 2.60GHz while the Athlon II X4 630 has a 2.80Gz frequency. Later this year we can also expect the Athlon II X4 635, that chip is clocked at 2.90GHz.
If you look the usual price comparison engines, you can find that Athlon II X4 620 with its 2.6GHz clock and 4x512KB L2 cache and no L3 cache is available, for some €90+, here. The faster version Athlon II X4 630 is listed here, but it is still not available.

Early Q4 2009 brings another, faster Athlon II X4 635 clocked at 2.9GHz remaining at the same 95W, something that is mutual to all Propus quads announced and planned so far.
