Click me.

AMD changed some previous names and added more info.
Remember, these are all the K8s.
The ones right after these will be the K9s.

The big thing is this.
The Athlon 64 FX-55 is coming this May.
It performs like a 4.2GHz CPU.
It will be so fast.

Yeah, AMD Athlon 64s have a lot of cache.

I know.
The only problem is that its low FSB (100MHz) can not use the Cache 3 to its highest potentional.
In other words, the Cache is waiting on the FSB for more data.
Thus, it performs worse than the AMD Opteron 848s.
