AMD, in a recent press briefing in Bangalore, brought together its esteemed customers and technology partners to discuss how the company provides choice in the mobile market, as also to offer insights into today's mobile computing trends. AMD showcased its latest product portfolio of processors highlighting AMD LIVE! solutions.
Addressing the press event, Henri Richard, said, "AMD's customer-centric philosophy means that we listen to our customers and end-users. We help our customers to succeed in this competitive market by delivering truly differentiated solutions."
"We understood what our customers wanted, and that's why we continue to introduce solutions that address their needs: energy efficient desktop processors; socket AM2 processors, including the new AMD Athlon 64 FX-62 dual-core processor and the AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual-core processor 5000+, and our new consumer brand for multimedia powerhouse PCs, AMD LIVE!," Richard said.
AMD LIVE! PCs are expected to enable smart digital entertainment by delivering a full-featured media center PC, ready for multiple tasks and advanced multimedia, thanks to the AMD64 dual-core processor. The AMD LIVE! PC can give users the ability to access, distribute, share, and enjoy digital entertainment anytime, anywhere.
Bob Brewer, corporate vice president - desktop business, AMD, said, "The AMD LIVE! PC and AMD LIVE! Entertainment Suite represents the culmination of industry-leading companies collaborating around open standards to deliver compelling entertainment solutions. With the AMD LIVE! PC, AMD begins delivering on its vision for merging broadcast TV content with interactive, personalized broadband applications and services, all without disrupting the devices already accepted and used by consumers in their homes today."
According to AMD, the AMD LIVE! PC is designed to help consumers get more enjoyment out of their digital media by consolidating their content in a central location, and by delivering the tools to help them easily and seamlessly access that content via devices they already have.
In addition, AMD unveiled its energy efficient desktop processor roadmap. These new processors can deliver greater performance-per-watt over AMD's standard power desktop processors, and reduce power consumption in active and idle states. On May 23, 2006, AMD had introduced socket AM2 processors across all desktop processors: AMD Athlon 64 FX, AMD Athlon 64 X2, AMD Athlon 64, and AMD Sempron. The new socket AM2 processors are designed to deliver high-performance, unbuffered DDR2 memory, and AMD Virtualization.
Further, AMD announced the immediate availability of the AMD Athlon 64 FX-62 dual-core processor, touted as the world's ultimate processor for PC enthusiasts, as also the AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+dual-core processor compatible with AMD's new socket AM2 platform. Socket AM2 is designed to enable next-generation platform innovations such as AMD Virtualization and high-performance, unbuffered DDR2 memory, etc.
The OEMs that are shipping systems with socket AM2 processors include Alienware, Fujitsu Siemens, HP, Lenovo, and over 40 leading system builders world-wide.
Also, AMD has transitioned the entire line-up of AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual-core processors over to the new socket AM2, while adding the AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ and 4000+ dual-core processors, especially for prosumers and digital enthusiasts looking to run sophisticated, multiple processor-intense applications simultaneously.
For current and future needs, the AMD Athlon 64 desktop single-core processors help ensure exceptional performance on today's software, with readiness for the coming wave of 64-bit computing. With AMD64 technology, customers can embrace the new capabilities of 64-bit computing on their own terms to achieve compatibility with existing software and operating systems. AMD has made available the following AMD Athlon 64 processors in both sockets 939 and AM2: AMD Athlon 64 3500+ and 3800+ processors.
The company says it is collaborating with industry-leading companies to help ensure a smooth transition to socket AM2.
Tim McCracken, qeneral manager, Firaxis Games, said, "Gamers who own an AMD Athlon 64 FX dual-core processor and a solid graphics card will be rendering Civilization 4 in all its glory, on a huge map with 18 Civilizations, the AMD Athlon 64 FX dual-core processor processed my gaming strategy turns instantaneously."
