Detailed Features
Features
The industry's first true Quad core x86 processor
True quad-core designed from the ground up for better communication between
cores. Cores can communicate on die rather than on package for better performance
AMD64 with Direct Connect Architecture
Increases application performance by reducing memory latency . Scales memory
bandwidth and performance to match compute needs. HyperTransport™ Technology
provides up to 14.4GB/s peak bandwidth per processor—reducing I/O bottlenecks.
Up to 27.2GB/s total delivered processor-to-system bandwidth (HyperTransport
bus + memory bus)
AMD Balanced Smart Cache
In addition to the 512K L2 cache per core, up to 2MB of L3 cache shared by
up to 4 cores. Shortened access times to highly accessed data for better performance.
AMD Wide Floating Point Accelerator
High performance (128bit internal data path) floating point unit per core.
Larger data paths for quicker floating point calculations and better performance.
HyperTransport™ 3.0 Technology
Up to 8 .0 GB/s HyperTransport™ I/O bandwidth; Up to 14.4GB/s in HyperTransport
Generation 3.0 mode. Up to 27.2GB/s total delivered processor-to-system bandwidth
(HyperTransport bus + memory bus). Quick access times to system resources
for better performance.
Integrated DDR2 DRAM Controller with AMD Memory Optimizer Technology
A high-bandwidth, low-latency integrated DDR2 memory controller. Quick access
to system memory for better performance.
AMD Virtualization™ (AMD-V™) With Rapid Virtualization Indexing
Silicon feature-set enhancements designed to improve the performance, reliability,
and security of existing and future virtualization environments by allowing
virtualized applications with direct and rapid access to their allocated memory.
Helps virtualization software to run more securely and efficiently enabling
a better experience when dealing with virtual systems
AMD Cool'n'Quiet™ 2.0 technology
Enhanced power management features which automatically and instantaneously
adjusts performance states and features based on processor performance requirements.
For quieter operation and reduced power requirements. Enables platform designs
providing less heat and noise efficient performance and energy usage.
AMD CoolCore™ Technology
Reduces processor energy consumption by turning off unused parts of the processor.
For example, the memory controller can turn off the write logic when reading
from memory, helping reduce system power. Reduces processor energy consumption
by turning off unused parts of the processor. For example, the memory controller
can turn off the write logic when reading from memory, helping reduce system
power. Power can be switched on or off within a single clock cycle, saving
energy without comprimised performance. Helps users get more efficient performance
by dynamically activating or turning off parts of the processor.
Dual Dynamic Power Management™
Enables more granular power management capabilities to reduce processor energy
consumption. Separate power planes for cores and memory controller, for optimum
power consumption and performance, creating more opportunities for power savings
within the cores and memory controller. Helps improve platform efficiency
by providing on demand memory performance while still allowing for decreased
system power consumption

Great product and even better service from Representative Bryan. Was originally part of a web order but I had to call in due to item being unavailable. Smooth transaction swap via telephone and cancel of partial order under the old invoice. Everything arrived a day earlier than expected. Facilitated a quick Friday and Saturday tear down and rebuild of two systems.
The product works as advertised. I have noticed that with the 4 cores 2.5GHZ and 8 Ghz of RAM less system resources are utilized to perform tasks than in the past. Running this on a XP64 box. No complaints. Not sure I'll try overclocking as yet. Probably when I get bored.
This processor rocks

I purchased the AMD 9850 Black Edition, a Gigabyte 785G Mobo, Logysis Case, Rosewill 600 Watt Power Supply, 4 GIGS os G Skill DDR2 800 Ram, 2 Apevia 120 MM LED CAse Fans and a Samssung 500 IG Hard Drive. This was my first bulid and these thing is fast. I overclocked the CPU to 2.91 GHZ with the stock fan and it runs at 56 degrees celcious maxed out. Thanks to this retailer's and AMDS great prices I have a computer that is hundreds of dollars less and can play games like Crysis if I want too. Thanks II'll be back for the Phenom 2 965 Black Edition.
