Athlon II X4 – New $99 AMD Quad-core CPU

September 17th, 2009

AMD is bringing a good news for the AMD CPU lovers community recently. The news is, they introduce a new quad core processors that priced only $99. Yup, your eyes don’t deceives you, it’s only $99 for an AMD Quad-Core processors. Magnificent isn’t it? :)

This new cheap quad core processors seems released due to the coming of Windows 7 OS that would stimulate the computer market to buy a new platform, will it be desktop or laptops, even netbooks is having a chance to change probably. Whatever the reason AMD has, as a computer users, I really glad to hear a cheap quad core processor coming into the market. Since it is the first time that they released a quad-core processor this cheap.

The new AMD quad core processor, named AMD Athlon II X4 was $50 cheaper than Intel Core 2 Quad 8200. Eventhough this Athlon II X4 is not going to be as fast as their Phenom series, but the price is still tempting, especially for those who used to only Athlon X2 before and trying to expand their processor working capacity with the new chipsets and operating systems that have better supports for multi-core processors.
