Product Features

• True Multi-Core Processing - The extensive AMD64 architectural optimizations and features enable thorough integration of multiple cores within the same processor, with each core having its own L1 and L2 caches.
• AMD Dedicated Multi-Cache - Each core has its own dedicated L2 cache, which enables simultaneous independent core access to L2 cache, eliminating the need for cores to arbitrate for cache access. This helps reduce latency on L2 cache accesses.
• AMD Virtualization™ (AMD-V™) Technology - Silicon feature-set enhancements designed to improve the performance, reliability, and security of both existing and future virtualization environments.
• AMD PowerNow!™ 3.0 Technology - The latest power management technologies that deliver performance on demand when you need it, and power savings when you don't.
• HyperTransport™ 3.0 Technology - Third-generation HyperTransport™ technology interface improves performance, supporting transfer speeds up to 4.4GT/s.

• Simultaneous 32-bit and 64-bit Computing - AMD64 technology enables a breakthrough approach to 64-bit computing that doubles the number of registers in the processor and allows PC users to use today's 32-bit software applications while
