AMD 6000+ released

Although the AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ wasn't expected until the 20th of February, the company's last X2 high-end processor before it begins to use its next generation architecture is out now. The processor uses a 90nm process and runs at 3.0GHz, with 1MB of L2 cache. It is essentially the socket AM2 equivalent to the FX-74, although this is slightly more expensive at the moment. Newegg is selling the processor for $599 and it is in stock at present, whilst Buy.com has set a price of $685.99 but it is sold out at the moment.

InfDamarvelIf would have been better if AMDs 65 nm had helped with o/cing. Then people could buy this and hit 3.4ghz and stuff lol.
they already hit 3.4ghz on the fx62 so i think 3.6ghz is not outta the question on these chips but it will require some powerful air cooling

Because they're so amazingly powerful that they can't work properly therefore they catch fire. Intel is just too powerful...
