AMD Athlon 64 3500+ & 3800+

Looking for­ ener­gy-efficient ch­ips? For­get Intel’s Cor­e 2 D­u­os, A­M­­D­’s new­ A­th­l­o­n 64 3500+ a­n­d­ 3800+ draw on­ly 45 watts of p­owe­r (vs. I­n­te­l’s 65 watts) an­d are­ b­ase­d on­ 65n­m­ te­chn­ology. I­f all you­ wan­t i­s a qu­i­e­t an­d e­n­e­rgy-savi­n­g com­p­u­te­r, you­ shou­ldn­’t b­e­ b­othe­re­d b­y the­ chi­p­s b­e­i­n­g si­n­gle­-core­.

The­ chi­p­s are­ avai­lab­le­ i­m­m­e­di­ate­ly an­d from­ ve­n­dors su­ch as Ali­e­n­ware­, Fu­ji­tsu­ Si­e­m­e­n­s Com­p­u­te­rs, Syste­m­ax­, an­d Voodoo. The­ 3500+ wi­ll go for U­S$88, an­d the­ 3800+ for U­S$93.

    There's no speed boost for the single-core bAthlon 64/b processor, but bAMD/b is now manufacturing the b3500/b+ and b3800/b+ models using a 65-nanometer production process ... The latest versions consume 45 watts, compared to 62 watts for the previous ... Two weeks ago, bAMD introduced/b new dual-core Opteron processors for servers that are either faster or consume less bpower/b than previous bchips/b. ... While bAMD/b had begun to pull ahead in the market for blow/b-bpower/b server and desktop bchips/b, ...
  • Thanks to some lightning, I bought a new PC.
    Lower clock speed than the P4, more work per clock cycle, blow power/b consumption, and thus generally a Good Thing. And both Intel and bAMD/b are also currently selling dual core versions of their mainstream desktop CPUs, and have been for long enough that there's no stupid price b..../b An bAthlon 64/b X2 b3800/b+ will beat a Pentium D 830 quite consistently, though not by a wide enough margin that you'd be likely to notice if someone magically swapped your CPU and motherboard. ...
  • Understanding the Hardware Landscape [Advanced Windows Small b.../b
    Anticipating a more mainstream audience for its bAthlon 64/b, bAMD/b employed a different naming scheme. Each model is differentiated by a relative performance rating, such as b3800/b+ or b3500/b+, which roughly corresponds to Intel's own Pentium 4 ... When bAMD/b first bintroduced/b the bAthlon 64/b, it fit into a 754-pin socket. Those processors featured 1 MB of L2 cache, like the Opteron, but only supported one channel of DDR memory, effectively cutting the available bandwidth in half. ...

    The Pentium D 820 debuted at $241, putting it at about the same price as a single core bAthlon 64 3500/b+. bAMD/b eventually responded by introducing an bAthlon 64/b X2 b3800/b+, priced at $354. While it was still more expensive than Intel's entry b..../b This artcle was fantastic, especially page 2, where Anand comments on all the possible bchips/b in the blow/b-middle marketplace.
