The AMD Sempron X2 2200 was a desktop processor with 2 cores, launched in March 2008. It is part of the Sempron X2 lineup, using the Brisbane architecture with Socket AM2. To further increase overall system performance, up to two Sempron X2 2200 CPUs can work together in a multi-processor (SMP) configuration. Sempron X2 2200 has 256 KB of L2 cache and operates at 2000 MHz. AMD is making the Sempron X2 2200 on a 65 nm production node using 221 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Sempron X2 2200, which limits its overclocking potential. With a TDP of 65 W, the Sempron X2 2200 consumes typical power levels for a modern PC. For communication with other components in the computer, Sempron X2 2200 uses a PCI-Express Gen 2 connection. 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.
