Bartons and AMD CPU Info

Published by

I was just over @ Overclockers.com and I see they have posted some details of upcoming barton CPU....Here's a snip.

Higher Numbers Doesn't Mean More Speed AMD will tack on a couple hundred points to the old PR to account for the increased cache Barton will have (and its 166MHz FSB). This is perfectly legitimate, but will create the anamoly of the 2500+ Barton actually running at a lower speed than the 2400+ TBred, leading no doubt to shock and denunciations from the conceptually challenged. And Over @ AMDZone they have posted the launch dates as well as current AMD CPU available in numbers.

Athlon XP 2400+ good supply Athlon XP 2600+ good supply Barton launch 2/10/03 at 2500+, 2800+, 3000+ later in the month or March
