The Next Athlons

by Maarten Goldstein, Jan 17, 2002 6:48am PST

Related Topics – AMD

The Inquirer has a few details on upcoming Athlon XP CPUs based on "reliable sources". We'll be seeing a XP 2200+ this quarter, running at 1800Mhz which still uses .18 micron technology. Then, in Q2, AMD will finally release the new XP using .13 micron technology, the XP 2500+. According to The Inquirer it seems likely the on die cache might be higher than the 256k currently on the XP CPUs and so along with additional gates and a better design it should be quite a bit faster.

Enter 2002, the year AMD kicks Intel's ass.

Intel's new P4 Northwood chips are a disapointment. All that time waiting for .13/copper chips and thats all the speed they give us.

Athlon XPs are already kicking ass, .13mu will just make them OWN

Well, with the time I DO have for gaming(not that much), I still have yet to see a game I can't play with my P3 700 o/c'd to 875 with a geforce2 GTS. Still waiting...maybe then I'll upgrade. Who cares anyways, I'm enjoying the shit out of my x-box.
