The AMD Athlon 64 3000+ was a desktop processor with 1 core, launched in October 2004. It is part of the Athlon 64 lineup, using the Winchester architecture with Socket 939. Athlon 64 3000+ has 512 KB of L2 cache and operates at 1800 MHz. AMD is making the Athlon 64 3000+ on a 90 nm production node using 69 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Athlon 64 3000+, which limits its overclocking potential.
With a TDP of 67 W, the Athlon 64 3000+ consumes typical power levels for a modern PC. AMD's processor supports DDR1 memory with a dual-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 400 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. Although the processor doesn't come with integrated graphics, certain motherboards with compatible chipsets can provide this capability.
Neither SSE3 nor SSE4 instruction sets are supported, which will lead to problems with games not starting.
