[page 1] AMD continues to raise the bar in performance - both in dual core with its recent X2 chip and now once again in the single core design with its pending FX-57 launch due on June 27th. [page 2] The FX-57 is armed with a total of 1152KB of cache (128KB L1 and 1024KB L2) which greatly speeds up commonly called data cues and is a great sized buffer between the CPU and system RAM.
