When AMD offered to send us their latest Sempron CPU for review, we honestly felt a little ashamed - we had almost entirely forgotten about the budget CPU that launched last June. Had we missed other Sempron reviews since its launch? Were we too tied up in the higher end desktop processors and the dual core migration to pay attention to AMD's brand new budget line? After a moment's panic, we calmed ourselves and realized something that had surprised us a bit - AMD hadn't released a faster Socket-754 Sempron since its launch in June 2004. Not a single new CPU in ten and a half months. We stopped feeling so bad..
