AMD Phenom X3 8000 series triple-core processors, providing gamers and digital media enthusiasts with exceptional performance at mainstream price points. AMD Phenom X3 processors are designed to improve multi-threaded application performance over dual-core processors at the same clock speed.
As the world?s only triple-core x86 processor, AMD Phenom X3 processors bring multi-core technology to a broader audience in search of desktop PCs that easily handle today?s digital entertainment workloads.
These new AM2 socket versions support DDR2 memory modules designed to improve overall memory performance through increased bandwith and larger densities.When paired with the AMD 780 series chipset, AMD Phenom X3 processors can deliver significant enhancements in gaming and high-definition experiences for mainstream PC customers.
This AMD desktop solution can provide a full HD experience with support for the latest and most demanding formats, including VC-1, MPEG-2 and H.264 on a mainstream PC. With the AMD Unified Video Decoder (UVD), the solution can process HD playback on the better-suited GPU rather than the CPU so consumers may enjoy a smooth HD viewing experience less lag, stalling and dropped scenes in the latest Blu-ray titles. These work best on AM2+ motherboards but will work on standard AM2 boards too Key FeaturesAMD Part Number: HD8450WCGHBOXBuilt in support for 64-bit applicationsHyperTransport Technology3.5MB total on die cache memory to speed up memory access and reduce processor bottlenecks Enhanced multimedia instructions including 3DNow!
There’s a unique energy among the people and partners of AMD. It’s the power of Fusion. Fusion is AMD’s working philosophy that marries innovation with collaboration. Far more than just the convergence of the GPU and CPU, Fusion is the process by which AMD and its partners enable the next-generation technologies that change the way we work, live, and play.
Set your own standards of performance with the latest "STARS" based AMD Phenom X3 processor for:
• Even wider bandwidth with HyperTransport™ 3 technology1
• Clock Multiplier Control and Advanced Clock Calibration put processor performance in your hands2
• Advanced performance controls with AMD OverDrive™2and the AMD Fusion for Gaming utility3
• Cool'n'Quiet™ 2.0 technology can help reduce heat and noise
• Integrated DDR2 memory controller and shared L3 cache for low-latency access to main memory
At home, Fusion is bringing Hollywood to the family. It’s harnessing the same AMD multi-core technology that enabled special-effects wizards to render complex animation in minutes instead of days. It’s enabling innovations such as AMD LIVE!™ to help people share movies, videos, photos and music on all the screens of their lives. It’s allowing customers to bring true HD computing capability into their homes and on the go.
At play, Fusion is the energy behind today’s most stunning PC gaming experiences. It’s applying our years of graphics processing experience as the originators of the first 3D GPU. It’s partnering to enable platforms such as Microsoft®Xbox 360© and the Wii™ from Nintendo®It’s delivering big-screen imagery and photo realism to the real-time interactivity of the latest video games. It’s pushing the limits of performance in groundbreaking, HD game-play on our quest for human-eye realism.
The AMD Fusion for Gaming utility can turn your PC into a lean, mean gaming machine. Temporarily shutting down background processes, boosting performance, and letting you select profiles for aggressive optimizations so you can quickly get down to serious business –gaming.
