AMD’s triple treat: the world’s first x86 triple-core processor

Page 3 of 3 The two processors will soon start becoming available from “leading OEMs and system builders”, and while pricing hasn’t been specified in their press materials, AMD advise that more details are available at AMD’s pricing page on its website. That said, we checked AMD's pricing site, and oddly, no pricing for Phenom X3 processors is yet listed - only pricing for the Phenom X4. No doubt pricing will be released soon. On that note, AMD have also launched the AMD Phenom X4, a ‘true’ quad-core processor that, unlike initial quad-core processors that have been on the market for some time, truly link four cores together on the same processor die, rather than just sticking two dual-core processors together. For more information on the AMD Phenom X4, please see iTWire's follow up article, "AMD puts four to the floor with Phenom X4 quad-core." Please enable JavaScript in your browser to post your comment!
