The AMD Athlon 64 3500+ was a desktop processor with 1 core, launched in May 2005. It is part of the Athlon 64 lineup, using the Manchester architecture with Socket 939. Athlon 64 3500+ has 512 KB of L2 cache and operates at 2.2 GHz. AMD is making the Athlon 64 3500+ on a 90 nm production node using 154 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Athlon 64 3500+, which limits its overclocking potential.
With a TDP of 67 W, the Athlon 64 3500+ 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.
The SSE4 instruction set is not supported, which can cause problems with modern games, as they require that capability.
