AMD Releases Sempron Earlier Than Expected

Posted by timothy on from the suitcase-in-hand dept.

I_am_Rambi writes "AMD has released the Sempron today, a release date that moved up from Aug 17th. Because of this move, some of the reviews that are out, will be continued later on. Some sites already have reviews including Toms Hardware, Anandtech, and Tech Report. The Sempron, AMDs budget processor, is staged against the Intel Celeron." Jason Jacobs writes with a review on Techware Labs, and Hack Jandy adds a link to a review at HotHardware, writing "it appears as though the Socket A based Sempron performs abysmally while dollar for dollar the Socket 754 version levels every Intel CPU."

    This is Slashdot's poor attempt to seem like a legitimate news source. Problem is, with a color scheme like this, nobody is being fooled.
