According to current leaked road map, AMD is planning to add three new 95 Watt thermal design power models four, six and eight-core CPUs to its product range! 

AMD's new 95W eight-core processor will be the model FX-8140 - featuring clocks of 3.2 GHz and Turbo Core up to 4.1 GHz with Turbo Core 2.0 technology. and 16MB of cache.

 

 AMD's new 95W six-core processor will be the model FX-6120 - featuring clocks of 3.5 GHz and Turbo Core up to 4.1 GHz with Turbo Core 2.0 technology and 14MB of cache

AMD's new 95W quad-core processor will be the model FX-4150 - featuring clocks of 3.9 GHz and Turbo Core up to 4.1 GHz with Turbo Core 2.0 technology and 12MB of cache. 

 

The exact pricing details and release dates are unknown, but we could expect them to be released in March.

AMD Bulldozer FX-Series CPUs detailed, allegedly set for October release!

AMD's highly-anticipated FX-Series processors (codename Zambezi), the first chips to be based on the Bulldozer architecture, will apparently miss the Q3 release plan, as a report is saying that the launch day of the CPUs is now scheduled for October.

Fortunately it's not all bad Bulldozer news as today we also get to contemplate on an allegedly real chart that provides details on no less than seven FX-Series models - four octo-core chips, two hexa-core and two quad-core.

Seen below, AMD's incoming FX-Series CPUs are made by GlobalFoundries on 32nm process technology, come in an AM3+ package, and have a built-in dual-channel DDR3-1866 memory controller, 1MB of L2 cache per core (so, 4/6/8MB on total), an unlocked multiplier and the Turbo Core 2.0 technology that will boost clock speed depending on load and the application running.

The flagship of the FX line is supposed to be the FX-8150 which boasts a core clock of 3.6 GHz, a Turbo clock of 4.2 GHz and a TDP of 125W. This one would be followed by two versions of the FX-8120 (3.1 GHz base clocks / 4 GHz Turbo), one with a 95W TDP and one topping 125W, and the entry-level octo-core FX-8100 (2.8 GHz base / 3.7 GHz Turbo / 95W TDP).

The hexa-core FX-6120 and quad-core FX-4120 have a TDP of 95W but unknown clocks, while the FX-6100 and FX-4100 come with the same TDP and feature base/Turbo clocks of 3.3/3.9 GHz and 3.6/3.8 GHz, respectively. Given the delay until Q4 it's not surprising that there are no prices to accompany the processor models.

New AMD Bulldozer Zambezi-FX Processor Roadmap Leaked!

The folks over at DonanimHaber have released yet another new AMD Roadmap that details the upcoming AMD Bulldozer (Zambezi-FX) Processors all they way to the end of Q1 2012 that is worth taking a look at. It seems that a roadmap leak happens every couple weeks and what makes this interesting is that all of the processors have part numbers now and the first four are still planned for release in early Q3. The last AMD desktop CPU roadmap that we posted didn't have part numbers! The four FX processors that are scheduled to be released first are listed below:

• FX-8150 (125w, 8 Cores, 8MB L3 Cache)
• FX-8100 (95w, 8 Cores, 8MB L3 Cache)
• FX-6100 (95w, 6 Cores, 8MB L3 Cache)
• FX-4100 (95w, 4 Cores, up to 8MB L3 Cache)

After that you'll have to wait until the middle of Q4 and then the four processors listed below will be released. The frequencies are not yet known but we are fairly certain that they will be slightly faster than the Q3 processors!

• FX-8170 (125w, 8 Cores, 8MB L3 Cache)
• FX-8120 (95w, 8 Cores, 8MB L3 Cache)
• FX-6120 (95w, 6 Cores, 8MB L3 Cache)
• FX-4120 (95w, 4 Cores, up to 8MB L3 Cache)

Bulldozer FX-based processors to be seen from the table above are the first quad-core FX-4100, the six-core and eight-core FX-8100 FX-6100 FX-8150 model with the market in the third quarter, AMD sunucak, by the end of the beginning of the 2012 final to take the last orders sevkilyatlarını plans to take the market by realizing these models. AMD, Bulldozer FX processors, the first models in the last quarter before taking the market from October to November-December period, ie running at higher clock speeds than the quad-core FX-4120, the six-core and eight-core FX-6100 FX-8120 and FX-81 701 modelerini will be marketed. Bulldozer, AMD plans to do with the 2012 series of evolution, towards the middle of next year at Trinity plans to introduce processors, code-named Bulldozer. These processors, the Bulldozer architecture will have hybrid versions of the Fusion is designed and the level of the Radeon HD 6700 integrated graphics unit will have. Bulldozer doğrulanmasa is not yet official in the Trinity series processors contain 2 billion transistors, and it is claimed that half of the integrated graphics unit to be welded.

Can't wait to get one of this in my rig!
