Four Powerful Processing Cores
------------------------------
With the Phenom II X4 series, AMD engineers have combined four
cores into a single processor, giving you enough processing
muscle for even the most highly threaded applications. Each core
is equipped with 512K L2 cache, and all four cores share 6MB L3
smart cache between them. AMD has also included an ultra-wide,
4000MT/s bandwidth--enough to support all four cores effectively.
For users, this means that you'll be able to run all the latest
software without the slowdown you'd experience with an inferior
processor. Your computer will be able to handle multiple programs
at once, and high-definition media players and video editors will
run smoothly and efficiently. You'll also be able to enjoy
next-gen games without any frame-rate hiccups.
Multiplier for Powerful Overclocking
---------------------------------------------
If you're an enthusiast looking to push the limits of PC
performance, the Phenom II X4 965 makes it easier than ever to
overclock your system. The multiplier allows you to
manually increase the chip's frequency far beyond its stock
values. You can achieve the best results by combining your
processor with a reliable motoard, high-performance SDRAM,
and an effective cooling system. With the right combination,
you'll be able to overclock your chip to unprecedented speeds.
Cutting-Edge Technologies for Faster Processing
-----------------------------------------------
The Phenom II X4 also makes use of several other
performance-boosting technologies, including:
* HyperTransport Bandwidth: Speeds up communication between the
processor and memory, improving overall system performance.
* Integrated Memory Controller: Actively scales bandwidth uses to
match your computing needs, dramatically reducing slowdown.
* 128-bit Floating-Point Unit (FPU): Allows processor to execute
floating-point calculations with extreme speed.
Gaming without Slowdown
-----------------------
PC gaming continues to improve at a breakneck rate, with
graphics, physics, and AI growing more realistic each year. But
you'll need more than just a good graphics card to keep up with
the latest games. For certain games that are heavily threaded, a
slow CPU can quickly become a bottleneck for performance and can
ruin your gaming experience.
Fortunately, the Phenom II X4 series has been specifically
designed to handle CPU-intensive games. With its multiple cores,
the processor can manage thousands of high-speed gaming
calculations at once. The result is a smooth, immersive gaming
experience, free of any stuttering or latency.
The Ultimate in Energy Efficiency and Cooling
---------------------------------------------
AMD products are known for their stellar energy efficiency and
the Phenom II X4 965 is no exception. The processor features
AMD's proprietary PowerNow and CoolCare technology, which allow
the processor to smartly regulate its own energy consumption.
Having an energy-efficient computer doesn't just help keep costs
down; it also generates less heat and helps your computer to run
more quietly. It will even prolong your processor's life cycle,
so you can enjoy it for years without having to worry about
degradation.
The AMD Phenom II X4 965 Quad-Core Processor is backed by a
three-year warranty.
