*What does the transition to the 45nm design node mean for processor performance?*

By designing the new AMD Athlon™ II X2 250 processors at 45nm, we’re able to deliver better processor performance while using significantly less power (Up to %50 less power at idle, 50% under light load and up to 40% under heavy load*) and better transistor efficiency than previous generation technology. The AMD Athlon II X2 250 is a natively designed dual-core processor with a TDP of 65W.


*Based on comparison of 65nm AMD Phenom™ X4 9950 125W to 45nm AMD Phenom™ II X4 940 125W. System Configuration: AMD internal reference motherboard (Shiner); CHIPSET: RS780 / SB700 Chipset; BIOS: MS9A04-4; MEMORY: DDR2-800 2X1024MB; O/S: Windows® Vista® SP-1; Other: C1E enabled, L3PwrSavEn enabled. © 2009 Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
