AMD has new 45nm quad core – Zosma

[Legend]

Phenom II X4 960T is the name

Delta Leonis is a star in the constellation of Leo and natives calls it Zosma. Some even calls it Zozma or Duhr. This science class is less important than the fact that AMD’s next generation 45nm quad core is codenamed Zosma.

You can expect it as early as Q2 2010, probably the middle part of it, and it is set to launch together with three new Hexa cores. We have a strong reason to suspect that Phenom II X4 960T 95W TDP quad-core is a six-core with two cores disabled, but we cannot confirm this at press time.

We don’t know any clock speeds but we can tell you that it is a 45nm SOI (what else) part, that it supports DDR3 1333 and fits in AM3 motherboards. We still wonder what T stands for but we are quite sure it's not Terrestrial. Thuban perhaps?

Nice. Watch the old phenoms prices drop. woohooo here we go finally. maybe i can grab one for 140$ soon.

I'm looking forward to their
new stuff. Looks fun!

NOM NOM the good stuff

I found something neat about their phenom 2 x2. its a dual core cpu that can unlock into a quad core for 90$. It performs on par with the phenom quads once they are unlocked. however the energy efficiency is lower. like i care lol. the 965 hasn't gone down. ITS GONE UP!!! its 190$ where there dual core that can unlock and OC to a 965 is only 90$ including a motherboard. PS you have to have a after market cooler if you want to OC to a 965...

Nice. You should've bought the 965 when you had the chance, but the x2 unlock is a good find. Gonna rack up your electrical bill, might want to turn it off more often.
