The first 64-bit Semprons have arrived
Because Intel he has already started It can also deliver Celeron processors capable of executing x64 instructions, and it was high time that AMD, which was responsible for the technology, also responded to the attack.
Major computer manufacturers have already received the first shipments, so nothing can stand in the way of the spread of AMD64. Now that both vendors are finally offering both entry-level and high-end x64 processors, software developers can no longer really find any way out why they shouldn’t try to take advantage of these opportunities.
The current change does not involve any important new features other than enabling the 64-bit instructions that have been disabled so far, so the new Semprons have otherwise completely similar capabilities to their previous counterparts.
The blood update will affect all officially announced Socket 754 Semprons, so 2600+, 2800+, 3000+, 3100+ and 3300+ copies will also arrive for $ 74, 83, 98, 113 and 140 respectively, which is a slightly higher price. means than we could get used to with their counterparts without AMD64.
The proliferation of cheap 64-bit processing is also important because it allows more and more people to switch for many available as a free upgrade, based on Windows Server 2003 - based Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, which already provides a much more stable, mature environment on 32 bits than its predecessor.
