The AMD Athlon 64 3200+ was a desktop processor with 1 core, launched in May 2006. It is part of the Athlon 64 lineup, using the Orleans architecture with Socket AM2. Athlon 64 3200+ has 512 KB of L2 cache and operates at 2000 MHz. AMD is building the Athlon 64 3200+ on a 90 nm production process using 154 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Athlon 64 3200+, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 62 W, the Athlon 64 3200+ consumes typical power levels for a modern PC. AMD's processor supports DDR2 memory with a dual-channel interface. For communication with other components in the machine, Athlon 64 3200+ uses a PCI-Express Gen 2 connection. Although the processor doesn't come with integrated graphics, certain motherboards with compatible chipsets can provide this capability.
The SSE4 instruction set is not supported, which can cause problems with modern games, as they require that capability. Hardware virtualization is available on the Athlon 64 3200+, which greatly improves virtual machine performance.
