AMD Delays Hammer

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the not-hammer-time-yet dept.

TeJarz writes "C|Net reports that their next processor (Hammer) has been rescheduled from its original Q4 release to Q1 2003. To quote C|Net: 'The delays are occurring to accommodate the release of a new version of Athlon with a 333MHz bus, said Crank. Current Athlons come with a 200MHz bus and 256KB of secondary cache.' Let's hope this doesn't get moved again."

    Current Athlons come with double-pumped 133MHz FSB. (effectively equal to 266MHz single-pumped)

    "Current Athlons come with a 200MHz bus and 256KB of secondary cache."

    Really? I thought I had an Athlon XP with a 266 MHZ bus.... oh wait, if Cnet says 200, I must be wrong!
