reports some new chips from AMD have found their way to the retail channel:
The new Sempron 145 is the fastest Sargas single-core to date, with a 2.8GHz clock and a price tag of around €35.
The Phenom II X2 560 Black Edition is a bit more interesting. It is a Callisto-based dual core clocked at 3.3GHz. It packs 1MB of L1 and 6MB of L3 cache and has an 80W TDP. At 3.3GHz, it’s the fastest AMD dual-core and one of the highest clocked AMD parts in general. It costs €100 and it has an unlocked multiplier.
The Athlon II X3 450 is AMD’s latest triple-core and it seems like a rather good deal. This Rana-based part is clocked at 3.2GHz, it has 1.5MB of L2 cache and no L3 cache whatsoever. It has a 95W TDP and it’s listed at €86 which sounds more than reasonable.
The site also mentions that a 3.0GHz 1075T is on the way, this chip will have a 125W TDP but the price is still unknown.
