AMD Virtualization to both commercial and consumer users. Virtualization on
desktop computers allows a single PC to act like multiple virtual machines.
AMD Virtualization can enable client computers to seamlessly support multiple
operating environments. Therefore, IT managers can now gain the ability to develop
and test software across multiple operating systems on a single computer to
facilitate software migrations, isolate business and personal operating environments
to increase security and reliability, and to initialize and manage client computers
with less interruption to end users. AMD Virtualization helps make it easier
for PC enthusiasts to upgrade and maintain their PCs through emulation.
New DDR2 Support Jump Starts Transfer Rates
DDR2 memory is the next generation of DDR memory that supports the open standards
efforts of the Joint Electronic Device Engineering Council (JEDEC), the governing
body for integrated circuit specifications. It uses an advanced signaling scheme
that can offer higher data transfer rates than DDR1 memory. The advanced signaling
scheme mentioned above allows high transfer rates using traditional PC motherboard
manufacturing techniques. DDR2 benefits to customers include lower voltage and
higher frequency headroom than DDR1 memory. Socket AM2 processors from AMD will
support DDR2 speeds of 400MHz, 533MHz, 667MHz and, for AMD Athlon™ 64 X2
dual-core and AMD Athlon™ 64 FX dual-core processors, 800MHz.
Like all the processors in the AMD Athlon 64 family, the AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core
processor is designed for people who want to stay at the forefront of technology
and for those who depend on their PCs to keep them connected, informed, and
entertained. Systems based on AMD Athlon 64 processors are able to deliver leading-edge
performance for demanding productivity and entertainment software today and
in the future.

Manufacturers sometimes offer discounts when large quantities of products are purchased without fancy, colorful, retail packaging. We take advantage of these opportunities to bring you the same quality, retail product at a lower price. Retail packaging is designed to look good on a store shelf and attract your attention. It frequently includes more paper, plastic and cardboard than needed. OEM packaging is not as visually attractive but is far more economical and because OEM packaging uses less paper, plastic, ink and cardboard it creates less waste and is better for the environment. Although OEM packaged product ships in a plain white or brown box you can be assured it is the same quality product as the retail packaged version. Buying OEM packaged products saves you money and helps save the planet…GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN. Included accessories, software, documentation, and manufacturer warranties on OEM products may vary from retail versions. Please review our detailed specifications and photo gallery for included accessories and see below for warranty information.

Like those who buy super amps to cover all the frequency ranges (big bucks) when we can only really hear about 10% of those, why pay for super fast CPUs when most of the time your every day use will never even get the thing out of 1st gear! Installed on wife's game PC and all her games run just fine! Fast enough for me and the PRICE IS RIGHT!!

Heat Sinks - Many Shapes & Sizes!
A heat sink (or heatsink) is an object that absorbs and dissipates heat from
another object using thermal contact (either direct or radiant). Heat sinks
are used in a wide range of applications wherever efficient heat dissipation
is required; including for CPUs, Memory, Video Cards, and more.
Heat Sink Shapes Change!
Many products come with a Heat Sink, and some with a combination Heat Sink
and Fan. Keep in mind though, that manufacturers are constantly
improving the design of their cooling components, thus the shape and design
of the heat sink or heat sink & fan can change on any product at any time.
PLEASE NOTE:
Cooling Components Can Change At Any Time, And Do Not
Affect The Performance Or Specifications Of The Product.
How Do Heat Sinks Work?
Heat sinks function by transferring high temperature thermal energy (heat)
from one object (such as a CPU chip) to a second object (such as the Heat
Sink), which has a lower temperature, with a much greater heat capacity.
This rapid transfer of heat quickly balances the temperature of both
devices, lowering the temperature of the first. This is what makes a
heat sink a cooling device. Since room temperature is usually cooler than
the hot device, the Heat Sink helps cool the device, lowering its temp to
closer to room temperature.
The most common design of a heat sink is a metal device with many fins or
vanes. The high thermal conductivity of the metal combined with the large
surface area of the fins does the work to rapidly transfer heat to the
surrounding, cooler, air. This cools the heat sink and whatever it is in
contact with. Some Heat Sinks use the metal alone for cooling, some
use fluids (just like you car radiator) and a thermal interface material
(such as thermal gel) to ensure maximum heat transfer to the heat sink.
Adding a fan dramatically improves air flow, and improves the heat transfer
even more.
Remember The
Thermal Paste!
Remember that when you are adding a Heat Sink, you MUST USE
thermally conductive Gel or Paste, to form a good thermal contact between
the Heat Sink and the Device. Failing to use this will result in
reduced cooling, and possible failure and damage to the device!
