AMD Introduces the Only
Windows®-Compatible 64-bit PC Processor!
Built on AMD64 architecture, the AMD Athlon™ 64 processor is designed to
deliver outstanding levels of performance and customer-focused innovation to
home and business users alike.
AMD64 technology is AMD’s approach to 64-bit computing which doubles the
number of processor registers and increases the addressable memory space well
beyond 4GB for increased performance and new, cinematic-computing experiences.
Processors with AMD64 technology offer leadingedge performance on today’s
software applications while enabling a seamless migration to future 64-bit
computing.
AMD64 Technology enables the industry to advance software development on all
fronts, with x86 compatibility, while providing the capability of delivering
64-bit technology benefits.

Features
AMD Athlon™ 64
AMD64 improves performance for many applications by evolving this
industry-standard technology from a 32- to a 64-bit architecture. 64-bit
computing allows operating systems and software to process more data and
access a tremendous amount of memory. AMD64 is an industry-standard approach
to 64-bit technology that combines innovation, simplicity, and foresight to
deliver the next generation of performance—today.
HyperTransport™ Technology
HyperTransport™ technology is a high performance, easy-to-implement system
interconnect technology originally invented by AMD. It is designed to
increase overall system performance by removing I/O bottlenecks, increasing
bandwidth, and reducing latency. HyperTransport technology implemented in
the AMD Athlon™ 64 FX processor enables a system bus to run at 1600MHz.
AMD Cool‘n’Quiet™ Technology
In the past, increased processor performance has often meant increased power
consumption and increased noise levels. AMD Cool‘n’Quiet™ technology is an
innovative solution available on AMD Athlon™ 64 processor-based systems that
can effectively lower the power consumption and enable a quieter-running
system while delivering performance on demand, for the ultimate computing
experience.
Enhanced
Virus Protection
All AMD64 processors, including the AMD Athlon™ 64 FX, AMD Athlon 64, and
Mobile AMD Athlon 64 processors, are enabled with Enhanced Virus Protection.
With Microsoft® Windows® XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), you will be able to fully
utilize the security technology*. By providing extra security at the
platform level, AMD lets you easily embrace the future of computing.
Hyper-Transport Technology
HyperTransport™ technology is a
high-speed, low latency, point-to-point link designed to increase the
communication speed between integrated circuits in computers, servers,
embedded systems, and networking and telecommunications equipment up to 48
times faster than some existing technologies.
HyperTransport™ technology helps reduce the number of buses in a system,
which can reduce system bottlenecks and enable today's faster
microprocessors to use system memory more efficiently in high-end
multiprocessor systems.
HyperTransport™ technology is designed to:
Provide significantly more bandwidth than current technologies
Use low-latency responses and low pin counts
Maintain compatibility with legacy PC buses while being extensible to
new SNA (Systems Network Architecture) buses.
Appear transparent to operating systems and offer little impact on
peripheral drivers.
