About the marking system for the dual-core Athlon 64s in our detailed news we have already reported that the current top model, the Athlon 64 X2 4800+ has a clock speed of 2,40 GHz and 2 MB of L4600 cache. However, we didn't know anything about the weaker specimens so far, now it's clear. So the 4800+ is a version of the 4200+ with a half-level cache, just like the 4400+, which, like the 2,20+, runs at XNUMX GHz but has half the cache.
As far as prices are concerned, our judgment is a bit ambiguous. The $ 537 price of the weakest model is definitely high for true mass spread to come into play. However, for those who usually buy more powerful machines, this is still affordable. That is, while the traditional Athlon 64 FXs and Pentium (4) Extreme Editions are mostly only in tests, they can probably get Athlon 64 X2 4400 + quite a few in the beginning.
