Desktop Thoroughbred to Come May 2nd.

translated:
also for the Desktop area. In order to become more accurate: on 2 May 2002. To this date AMD will present its new Athlon XP processors on base of the Thoroughbred core, which will replace over the XP processor briefly or long with Palomino core. The substantial differences of the two PCUs by the bank from that on 0.13µm production technology shrunk will be based. Mainly by this Shrink an increase of the real clock frequencies is enabled, with lower capacity of the PCUs. Here a short overview which us expect becomes
Thus AMD will enter with the Thoroughbred with a Athlon XP 1800+ or a real clock of 1533 mc/s and with the conception of the new Desktop of processor the highest model with the XP 2200+, with real 1800 mc/s clock will offer. Ursrpruengliche planning assumed that that all Thoroughbred PCUs will offer core a voltage of 1.65V, this were however obviously somewhat downward corrected.
Only the processor, which will begin 2200+, maximumclocked with the Launch, with 1.65V. At the same time AMD lowers the max. core temperature on 85°C with this model. The capacity is naturally with this model most highly, however here quite still air seems to upward be situated. AMD will turn probably still in this year further at the clock screw and the more highly clocked Thoroughbred PCUs with 1867 and 2000 mc/s will present. During same core voltage of 1.65V, these the accurately identical capacities are certified by 67,9W. Compared with the present front runner of the XP processors on Palomino core, the capacity thereby is situated still with 2.1W lower. One wants to resume the Thoroughbred core up to a Athlon XP 3000+, before to the next core generation one transfers.

hope this helps
 


<< Desktop Thoroughbred to Come May 2nd. >>

what does this mean, exactly? supposedly the mobile tbred was released last month... yet, you still cannot purchase one. isn't that what we call a "paper release"?
 
i don't think this is paper release. A paper release is when the chip maker (intel, amd) annouces the release of new CPU, but the CPU isn't available in retail channels for some time.

AMD hasn't even annouced the release of the desktop thoroughbred yet have they?
 
1.65 volts is a tad high for my liking. but at least it is lower then what the cores are currently running at. Or am I off on that too?
 
Adul- Current cores runs at 1.65. I doubt we will see the chip available that soon, places would have it on pre-order already.

The issue is wattage vs die size.

A die that would have previously been .18 x .18 will now be .13 x .13 - 58% of the surface area, yet will dissipate significantly more than 58% of the power.

They're going to be a bitch to cool without a heat spreader.

Viper GTS
 
its easier to cool without a heat spreader (due to the extra interface between materials), its just harder to mount without crushing the core.
 
I think it's going to run cooler, AMD is just playing it safe with the Voltage like they always have.
 
I doubt they will be May 2. They would have announced that earlier.

And yes, they will be hard to cool well.

And no, a heat spreader WON'T help!!
 
The current xp's run at 1.75v. I heard some rumors when the xp's launched that the 1600~1800 models were using some 130nm technology in them. This is why they oc'ed so much better then the launch xp1500's (and had later fab dates). --> IF <-- this is/was true then that would explain why the voltage has only gone down a tenth .10 .

A little food for thought...

no, but they've announced the release of their mobile t-bred, yet I cannot find anywhere to buy one.
