AMD Roadmap for 2006/2007
AMD has issued a new roadmap for the last quarter of this year as well as the first 3 quarters of next year.
Things to look most forward to are located on the top of the list: namely Agena and Kuma. Agena will be AMD's top offering introduced in 3Q07. The CPU will be quad core; it is projected to have a TDP of 125W. Interestingly, it will use both L2 and L3 cache (2MB each). Clock speeds range from 2.7 to 2.9 GHz. Lastly, the CPU sports a 4000MHz Hypertransport bus and fits into the AM2+ socket.
Kuma will be AMD's dual core processor introduced in 3Q07. Similarly to Agena, it will feature both L2 and L3 cache.
Another one of AMD's CPUs, the AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+, will be announced this month. It is likely to be the last and greatest CPU for socket AM2, boasting a frequency of 3 GHz.
Some CPUs will also be phased out, the X2 4600, X2 4200 and X2 3800 will stop being produced in 2Q07.
So will AMD regain the performance crown? Intel will introduce their Quad Core CPU very soon compared to AMD, so we will have to wait a while before the battle for performance king takes place.
