AMD Athlon 64 3400+ to Come in December?

Vengeance · Nov 5, 2003, 07:53 AM

Advanced Micro Devices is set to release its AMD Athlon 64 3400+ processor by holiday season, an unofficial source with some knowledge of the companyâ€™s plans told X-bit labs on Sunday.

As a result of the announcement that will presumably happen next month, AMDâ€™s Athlon 64 lineup will catch up with the Athlon 64 FX-51 processor in terms of clock-speed. Its performance is still to be confirmed, however, as the FX-family of microprocessors from AMD have one tangible improvement over the ordinary Athlon 64 chips â€“ the dual-channel memory controller.

Thats exactally what I am waiting for. The second they hit a store in canada or the US I'm gonna be on the horn placing my order and it will be heading for paradice, (my case ofcoarse), on the first plane out. I dont usually have this much time to think about what I am going to buy. I dont really think befor I purchase. I just end up finding something in a store or online and before I know it I'm installing it. With all this time I can review loads of reviews of new mobo's and end up getting the one thats right for me.
