The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core processor puts the power of dual core technology on the desktop. Dual core processors contain two processing cores, residing on one chip, that perform calculations on two streams of data, thus rising efficiency and speed while running many programs and the new generation of multi threaded software. For user that means a important increase in answer and performance when running many applications at the same time. The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core processor outperforms the highest performing AMD Athlon 64 4000+ single core processor on multi tasking benchmarks by up to 30%. Dual core technology is like having two processors working together, every one taking care of different applications, so power users really experience greater performance when many applications are running. The AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core processor is intended for people who want to stay at the forefront of technology and for those who rely on their PCs to keep them connected, informed, and entertained. Systems depending on AMD Athlon 64 processors are able to deliver leading edge performance for calling for productivity and entertainment software today and at some point.
