AMD new CPU's for Q4: X6 1100T / 1065T - X4 975

In an attempt to boost performance of its six-core and quad-core processors in advance of the Holiday season, AMD intends to release two new six-core processors Phenom II X6 1100T (3.30GHz), which will be the fastest chip the company has to offer and Phenom II X6 1065T (2.90GHz), which will be the highest-performance six-core offering with 95W thermal design power. In addition, the company will itroduce its most powerful quad-core Phenom II X4 975 chip with 3.60GHz clock-speed. The chips are specifically aimed at the higher end of the market and will rise performance bar for AMD central processing units.

The forthcoming introduction of a faster six-core offering in Q4 2010 may indicate that Advanced Micro Devices is now seeing higher yields of six-core Phenom II X6 "Thuban" processors at Globalfoundries using 45nm SOI fabrication process. The further expansion of six-core product family with an expensive and mainstream parts is likely to slightly increase average selling prices and consequently revenues of AMD.

Phenom II X6 1100T 3.3Ghz 125w
Phenom II X6 1065T 2.9Ghz 95w (yay, at least other 95w god)
Phenom II X4 975 3.6Ghz 125w

black edition?
what's the turbocore clock?

phenom II x4 975 .... wich stepping would that be ??? C3 or something new???

1100T 3.3Ghz --> 3.7Ghz Turbo.

They're just C3(X4) and E0(X6). As xbitlabs mention, yields seems to be better. Hopefully, 1065T will arrive in full retail form and not just as a pre-build option for some UK sites (retail only in japan).

1055T 95w review

new chips! sweet :up:
can't wait how they perform and OC ability :rolleyes:

They really have to finish supplies befor BD it seems ;)

thanks nintendork

1065T looks tasty till now i cant get retail 1055T's 95W maybe its OEM oh well.

The 1100T model comes dangerously close to 4Ghz in Turbo mode :). Ten more percent and we have a 4Ghz capable 45nm 10h core(on 3 or less cores active) that wasn't initially designed to hit these frequency targets.If they managed to do this with 10h on 45nm,what could possibly Bulldozer reach on 32nm SOI+hk/mg when it's frequency optimized to begin with? :D

I wonder if we will be seeing one more top X6 model before X8 launches.3.4Ghz with 3.8Ghz Turbo on either 125W or 140W is certainly very possible.975BE is also hitting very close to 4Ghz mark,maybe it's Thuban based?Even if it's "just" a C3 Deneb it will be a very speedy quad core.

I would have liked to see CPUNB speeds up, 2400 should have been stock

They just recently released 970 and now they are going to release a 975? 3.6Ghz does sound pretty good.

Would like to see Bulldozer already.

my exact thoughts.
its nuts how much AMD has come since the PII 940/920 all on the same process

Not that the 940 wasn't a good clocker. They did 3.6GHz pretty reliably.

Next gen cpu may not need high ghz to produce more performance

Gamers will be happy.
Pushing the today fastest CPU's prices down ...
And soon we will have X6 for a price of a mid class Quad. Oh Boy I want to see that

its a weird thing to hope for. as x6 prices come down, x4 go down aswell. when the PII 940 came out, it was 270$ (i know cause i paid that instead of waiting 2 weeks for 20% drop, lol). most top x4 chips come out a little under 200$, and the middle ones are 150ish, lowest at ~100$. a 140$ x6 would be right around that, but chances are its a 1035T, which i couldnt find for sale at all. guess yields are toooooo good.

pretty impressive clocks, i believe that they'll do a last push before BD launch sometime next year and try to release a 4ghz stock cpu (just to be the first one to offer a 4ghz consumer cpu) with a small turbo (200mhz) which might be doable if they continue to improve their process at this pace

wow these are great speeds for x4/x6 45nm :) the only problem with this is i SO dont need another cpu but its gonna be freakin hard to resist testing out one of those 1100T's :D

yeah already OEM 3,6-3,7ghz.. pretty quick ramp up from 3ghz :eek:

i think, we will see in 1Q2011 3.4 GHz Thuban ;)

im a little mad they havnt given us any 140W chips in a while. nothing wrong with releasing something that consumes alot of power, especially if you can get 200-300mhz out of it. i guess they dont want any more chepo motherboards being set on fire.

a 4ghz tri core should be LOL easy, and sell for easily as much as all other new quad phenoms

And without any new stepping. Every AMD chip I remember had a stepping update.

"K10" era
Phenom B2 --> B3
Phenom II / Athlon II C2 --> C3
Phenom II Thuban E0 --> ??

:D

The yields are returning good results it seems. Well its only good news for AMD. Clearly Phenom II's have the IPC disadvantage against i7, yet AMD seems to try and make up some ground with sheer clock speed.

Not just clock speed, they do very good at pricing their cpu's very competitively relative to avg performance of the competition. You may not get the fastest horse on the planet buy you definitely get your moneys worth.

nice 1090t is coming down in price already...

$263 with a 8gig flash drive
