The AMD Athlon 64 3000+ (C0) was a desktop processor with 1 core, launched in December 2003. It is part of the Athlon 64 lineup, using the ClawHammer architecture with Socket 754. Athlon 64 3000+ (C0) has 512 KB of L2 cache and operates at 2000 MHz. AMD is building the Athlon 64 3000+ (C0) on a 130 nm production process using 69 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Athlon 64 3000+ (C0), which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 89 W, the Athlon 64 3000+ (C0) consumes a good deal of power, so decent cooling is needed. AMD's processor supports DDR1 memory with a single-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 400 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. For communication with other components in the machine, Athlon 64 3000+ (C0) uses a PCI-Express N/A connection. Although the processor doesn't come with integrated graphics, certain motherboards with compatible chipsets can provide this capability. Inside the box you will not only find the processor, but also a Yes cooler.
Neither SSE3 nor SSE4 instruction sets are supported, which will lead to problems with games not starting.
