AMD's Turion 64 Roadmap; 3.0GHz Opterons - TechAmok
AMD's Turion 64 Roadmap; 3.0GHz Opterons - [hardware] 04:20 PM EST - Mar,30 2006 - post a comment AMD's
plans for the Turion 64 platform and the new S1 Socket were leaked
accidentally. The new CPUs will use DDR2-667 and are code named Taylor, Tyler
and Trinidad:
Our contact indicated to us that AMD's new dual-core Turion 64 processor,
codenamed Taylor, was slatted to launch on May 9th of this year but now may be
delayed to June. The processor is a low wattage processor designed to be used on
socket S1 boards. The processor has twin 256KB L2 caches and supports
DDR2-667MHz memory. Taylor will be the first mobile AMD processor to support
DDR2-667MHz and be placed squarely up against Intel's Core Duo. AMD will also be
releasing a version of Taylor, called Trinidad which has the same specifications
but be equipped with twin 512KB L2 caches.
On the single core side, AMD will also be launching a new processor currently
codenamed Keene. The processor will be identical to Taylor, but only have one
core. In terms of power usage, AMD will be pushing the envelop in low power
usage. No exact details were given but current usage numbers for Taylor and
Keene are 35 watts and 25 watts respectively. No specific date for Keene was
given but it looks as though Keene will be available not long after Taylor.
In the first half of 2007, AMD will be making a change to Taylor. The successor,
called Tyler, will be based on similar specifications but move to a smaller 65nm
fabrication process and support DDR2-800MHz. Tyler will remain dual-core and by
the same time frame, Intel will also be showcasing Merom.
In related news,
AMD just
added 3.0GHz Opterons to their roadmap. Both the 3.0GHz Opteron 256 and the
3.0GHz Opteron 856 processors are Troy based CPUs with 1MB L2 cache and carrying
the A5BL Revision E OPN. AMD also added plans for two dual core 2.8GHz Opterons
on the roadmap. The Opteron 290 and 890 will be the newest and perhaps last
additions to the Socket 940 Opteron lineup. Both chips are based on the A6CD
Socket E revisions. |
