I did some MAJOR research & found that there will be many different varieties of CPU's coming out soon. Some will be based on the \"San Diego Core\" & others with the \"Venice Core\"

The only difference between these two cores is the L2 cache. That is it. ;)

Here is what I found out & in USA Prices!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

San Diego Core: Code \"BN\"
Athlon 64 FX-57  939 1MB L2 2.8 GHz \"BN\" (Rev E) $ ?    (Multi Unlocked)
Athlon 64 FX-55  939 1MB L2 2.6 GHz \"BN\" (Rev E) $827    (Multi Unlocked)
Athlon 64 4200+  939 1MB L2 2.6 GHz \"BN\" (Rev E) $ ?
Athlon 64 4000+  939 1MB L2 2.4 GHz \"BN\" (Rev E) $549
Athlon 64 3700+  939 1MB L2 2.2 GHz \"BN\" (Rev E) $327
Athlon 64 3500+  939 1MB L2 2.0 GHz \"BN\" (Rev E) $270  (Awesome OC'er)

Venice Core: Code \"BP\"
Athlon 64 4200+ 939 512k L2 2.8 GHz \"BP\" (Rev E) $ ?
Athlon 64 4000+ 939 512k L2 2.6 GHz \"BP\" (Rev E) $540
Athlon 64 3800+ 939 512k L2 2.4 GHz \"BP\" (Rev E) $389
Athlon 64 3500+ 939 512k L2 2.2 GHz \"BP\" (Rev E) $272
Athlon 64 3200+ 939 512k L2 2.0 GHz \"BP\" (Rev E) $199
Athlon 64 3000+ 939 512k L2 1.8 GHz \"BP\" (Rev E) $149
Athlon 64 2800+ 939 512k L2 1.6 GHz \"BP\" (Rev E) $ ?


WTF is AMD doing here ?? Coming out with 512k & 1MB CPU's ?? Well, they obviously know what they are doing & for the Price, the 3500+ San Diego is the best due to its OC'ing potential & 1MB L2 cache.

Sweet CPU's aren?t they ;)

Yes, well AMD's Dual Core's are doing quite well against Intel's Dual Core.

It's a money grab fro ATI ;)
