Nette birkaç gündür dolaşıyor, duymamış olanlar için yeni 90nm'lik Athlon64 çekirdeğindeki değişiklikler :
* Full SSE3 implementation * Improved hardware data prefetch mechanism * Increased number of writing combine buffers (D0 stepping A64's can now combine up to four non-cacheable streams compared to 2 on the C0 and CG stepping A64's) * Improved on-die memory controller with more advanced open page policy * On-die thermal throttling * Black Diamond Low-K technology (slower less power hungry transistors in less used sections and faster and more power hungry transistors in frequently used sections of the cpu)
Şu linkte de eski A64'lerle karşılaştırmalar var :
