The AMD Athlon 64 1500+ was a desktop processor with 1 core, launched in November 2005. It is part of the Athlon 64 lineup, using the Venice architecture with Socket 754. Athlon 64 1500+ has 512 KB of L2 cache and operates at 1000 MHz. AMD is building the Athlon 64 1500+ on a 90 nm production process using 69 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Athlon 64 1500+, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 9 W, the Athlon 64 1500+ consumes extremely little energy. AMD's processor supports DDR1 memory with a single-channel interface. Although the processor doesn't come with integrated graphics, certain motherboards with compatible chipsets can provide this capability.
The SSE4 instruction set is not supported, which can cause problems with modern games, as they require that capability.
