Boulard83 4 Posted December 23, 2011 AMD May Be Preparing Phenom II X8 Microprocessors. BIOS Updates Reveal AMD Phenom II X8 Chips [12/22/2011 11:09 PM] by Anton Shilov BIOS updates for mainboards made by Elitegroup Computer Systems and Jetway reveal that Advanced Micro Devices may be preparing a new line of multi-core microprocessors called Phenom II X8. Based on alleged specifications of the products, the new central processing units (CPUs) will be aimed at cost-sensitive segment of the market. Based on CPU support list of Jetway HA18 mainboard based on AMD 9-series chipset and AM3+ socket, AMD is preparing a series of new microprocessors based on Zambezi design (Bulldozer micro-architecture, 4, 6 or 8 cores) of different revisions with rather low clock-speeds and with 95W thermal design power. Jetway lists the new processors as "engineering samples", but a well-known Japanese observer/blogger Northwood.blog60.fc2.com points to an alleged ECS A890GXM-A2 CPU support list that calls the chips as AMD Phenom II X8. The list of AMD Phenom II X8 microprocessors includes four models: •AMD Phenom II X8 2420: 2.40GHz, 95W, ZD242046W8K43 •AMD Phenom II X8 3020: 3.00GHz, 125W, ZD302051W8K44 •AMD Phenom II X8 2520: 2.50GHz, 95W, ZD252046W6443 •AMD Phenom II X8 2820: 2.80GHz, 95W, ZD282046W8K43 The "Phenom II X8" microprocessors can be actual early engineering samples of chips that now belong to AMD FX premium product line, however, listing of their support now implies that AMD is cooking something new.

Boulard83 4 Posted December 23, 2011 Quelqu'un qui fait bcp de montage vidéo ou autres appli CPU intensif, les Phenom II X6 sont de très bon proco pour pas trop chère quand même. Donc un X8 sur AM3 pourrait être une bonne solution "cheap". J'avoue que c'est quand même possible de monter une Rig 2500k pour presque le même prix qu'une rig PhenomII X6 .... Mais j'imagine qu'en situation de vrai travail CPU, les X8 seront mieux ou similaire qu'un 2600k. J'imagine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dnLL 0 Posted December 23, 2011 Intéressant quand même. Les CPU AMD ne sont pas très chers. Mais je doute qu'on dépasse un 2600k par contre. Mais les X8 coûteront moins chers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
