December 2006At the same time with the launched of the processor product with energy-efficient type, AMD also announce the transition to 65 nm process technology, started with the existence of dual core processor for desktop, namely AMD Athlon64 X2 energy-efficient.
With move to 65nm process technology, it's true make AMD can produce more amount processor from the 300 mm wafer, surely will improve entire capacities produce, and also remain to continue the raising of performance scale, and the degradation of entire energy requirement aggressively.
The transition, besides will affect from the performance side, it's also enable the smaller form factor creation, which can completely the computing requirement for the home type and also office.
In the next middle of the 2007, AMD expect the transition process to 65 nm process technology will finished, which conducted in Fab 36. With the mass transition process in the entire processor product, AMD seems try clever enough and work hard to fulfill the increasing requirement of world technology, at processor X86 type.
The product its self, which started with this process technology is Athlon64 X2 5000+, 4800+, 4400+, and 4000+. With each alternately offering price from AMD, that is US$301, US$271, USD$214, and USD$169.
