AMD Unveils Athlon 64 X2 6400+ Black Edition
While every hardcore AMD fan awaits the Barcelona and Phenom series of CPUs, AMD is busy making the best out of what it has already. In a Japanese presentation, AMD showed off the Athlon 64 6400+ "Black Edition". This CPU should hit retail markets on August 20th, and should cost anywhere between $220 and $240 USD. The CPU runs on a 90nm process, and is clocked at 3.2GHz.
At the same presentation, AMD demoed a Phenom X4 system at 3GHz in an AMD RD790 motherboard. AMD somehow managed to present this without anyone getting good performance numbers. ![]() Source: Nordic Hardware |

Why is AMD keeping K10 so under wraps, I remember before Conroe they were releasing benchmarks.

Reguardless. Im holding out to see the colour of the Phenoms before I decide weather or not to clip my AMD ties & head for Intel C2d's skies.
I dont think my O/c'd X2 3800+ will be able to put up much of a fight when that time arrives. even now its kinda feeling its age. but I dont have the funds right now to carry out a full on overhaul & this system is less the a year old anyhoo

Well the difference is the 6400+ is going to oc better than a 6000+ because it's a better quality bined chip and uses 89w to the 6000+ current 125w, which means less heat. I bet it will do 3.6ghz on air and if you have a 3800x2 to 4800x2 Windsor and need a upgrade that would be a giant one. A 6400+ will be very competative to the the current core 2 duos excluding the e6850. It should match up with a e6700 e6750. Don't get me wrong it will be slower just not that much real world difference.

And AMD chips in your hand feel like gold while Intel's feel like um... cheap aluminum.

If they had benchmarks to brag about they would be bragging already.
Thats my guess

That's what I'd think, but if they didn't have a good product, they'd also be hitting hard on the adverts about things like htt where Intel can't touch them, like in the 2+ server board segment. Idk....it was the same with the 2900xt, there weren't benchmarks before it was very close to being released. Maybe it's AMD's new stance.

I still wait for the day anxiously when an AMD chip is in the No1 spot in both the Sceincemark and SuperPi threads
I fear however that at least for the SuperPI....that may be a while off yet.

There is no rule that you HAVE to have your system specs listed, in fact there is even an option to not show it even if it is filled out.

you forgot to add this chip has 2X2mb cache and not 2x1MB like the 6000+ hence jumping up to 6400 and not 6200
this should oc well i wanna see a new AMD WR on these chips oh and the slight improvment comment what improvement did you see from 1066mhz FSB to 1333MHZ FSB? intel AMD is keeping up even with old chips 6400+ e6850 hmmmm well if you already have a sAM2 board the cost to upgrade is minimal. now the intel side you have a s775mobo oh wait it wont work cause intel locked the chips out of working on it never heard of AMD making a BS stunt like that and intels been doing it since before s370 remember i810? or s423 anyone have one of the 3 chips released on that b4 the change to s478 like 10mins later

Here is the english short translation Posted by: Chris_Tom on Tuesday, August 14, 2007 - 04:41 PM HKEPC Hardware has reviewed the Athlon 64 X2 6400+ Black Edition. It comes boxed, through the channel only, but without a heatsink. That saves on shipping costs I'm sure. Anyway, it appears to be about 2% to 12% faster than the 6000+, and it may just best the E6750, but not the E6850. |

I would have thought he (Chris Tom) would be referring to the 6400+ at stock, with a OC such as a111087 has suggest might bring it on par with one. That's how I've read it anyroad.
