New dual-core Athlon processor on the horizon

The first processor where there is no longer a 64 mark.

The Athlon X2 BE-2350 is still made with a bandwidth of 65 nm, however, the TDP has been reduced to as much as 45 W. In addition to the 200 MHz bus speed, this time the manufacturer set a multiplier of 10,5 times, so the final speed became 2,1 Ghz at 1,152 V. The HyperTransport link clock remained at 1 GHz.

Although the CPU-Z program is still signaling a newcomer to the Athlon 64 X2, AMD has officially confirmed that the number 64 will no longer be part of their new model numbering system.
