Key Architectural Features
|
|
|
AMD64 technology enables leading-edge software performance and new experiences & capabilities. Specifically, AMD64 technology:
- Provides high performance levels without any changes to existing 32-bit applications
- Allows both high-performance 32-bit and 64-bit computing, offering end users an easy, compelling and affordable means to take advantage of tomorrow's emerging applications
- Additional 64-bit internal registers for computing performance
- Addressability beyond 4GB for new capabilities
- Enhanced Virus Protection*
HyperTransport™ technology
- HyperTransport™ technology with a 2000MHz bidirectional double data clock rate provides a fast and low latency connection in your computer system. With free flowing data, you can feel confident your applications can operate at their maximum potential
The Integrated double data rate (DDR and DDR2) memory controller designed to reduce memory latency.
- Designed for performance by directly connecting the processor to the memory
- Supports industry-standard, widely-available DDR memory modules for high-performance systems
- Features ECC protection that enables increased system reliability, helping to ensure your systems run smoothly
High-Performance, On-Die Cache
- The AMD Athlon 64 FX processor features a large high-performance on-die cache memory. The 2304KB (128KB L1 + 1024KB L2 per core) of total usable cache is designed to improve instruction throughput
AMD Digital Media XPress™ support for SSE, SSE2, SSE3 and MMX instructions
- With the addition of SSE3 instructions to existing 3DNow!™ Professional technology, the AMD Athlon 64 FX processor is compatible with the largest installed base of multimedia-enhanced software. Software specifically tuned for this suite of instructions can give me smooth, rich, lifelike images, precise digital audio and an enriched Web experience

* Enhanced Virus Protection can be enabled by certain operating systems, including the current versions of Microsoft® Windows®, Linux®, Solaris™, and BSD Unix. After properly installing the appropriate operating system release, users must enable the protection of their applications and associated files from buffer overrun attacks. Consult your OS documentation for information on enabling EVP. Contact your application software vendor for information regarding use of the application in conjunction with EVP. AMD strongly recommends that users continue to include third-party antivirus software as part of their security strategy.
