AMD Athlon™ 64 FX Processor and
AMD Quad FX Platform Overview
Featuring AMD’s most advanced processor technology, AMD Athlon™ 64
FX processors are designed specifically for PC enthusiasts. AMD Athlon™ 64
FX processors enable enthusiasts to immerse themselves in their digital
world. They can play games at a level previously only reserved for the
world of simulations, create and manipulate digital media like a pro,
and explore the possibilities of megatasking – running multiple
demanding applications at once. The AMD Athlon™ 64 FX processor
brings the next generation of digital media and games to life.
AMD Athlon 64 FX processors power the next innovation for the enthusiast
PC platform: The AMD Quad FX platform with Dual Socket Direct Connect
Architecture. The Revolutionary AMD Quad FX platform is the first dual-socket,
multi-core PC platform designed to take advantage of the latest enhancements
in Windows Vista™ Ultimate and for megatasking PC enthusiasts
and power-users who run the most demanding tasks simultaneously. The
AMD Quad FX platform with Dual Socket Direct Connect (DSDC) Architecture
is ready for the most demanding multi-threaded digital content creation
software and for the next wave of incredibly demanding multi-threaded
games.
DSDC Architecture is AMD’s exclusive high-bandwidth interconnect
for two AMD Athlon 64 FX processors. The AMD Quad FX platform featuring
two AMD Athlon™ 64 FX dual-core processors with DSDC Architecture
for megatasking can double your digital media application performance
over two core platforms. Adding another processor doubles the cores,
doubles available memory bandwidth—up to 25.6GB/s, and doubles
the amount of high-speed on-die cache.
With the AMD Quad FX platform you are ready for the multi-core, multi-threaded
future. The AMD Quad FX Platform is designed to offer a seamless upgrade
path from dual-core processors to quad-core processors when they are
available in 2007. This offers an advanced four core platform today
and a planned eight core platform in the future.

Redefine Performance
Performance is not just a question of running one application at jaw-dropping
speed. It is about a computing experience that lets you run multiple
processor intensive and multithreaded applications responsively at
top speed. Megatasking is that experience. Megatasking is about playing
the latest life-like game while instant messaging, creating, editing
or enjoying your favorite digital media.
Megatasking is about keeping your creative flow moving and bringing
your ideas to life with high-definition video editing, content creation,
digital imagery, and audio mixing. You can work on multiple pieces of
your project simultaneously and don’t have to stop creating while
waiting for a filter to apply.
Megatasking is about running a dedicated game server on your PC while
playing the game on the same PC, while voice chatting, while playing
your own soundtrack and still being able to alt-tab to other basic apps
like your e-mail, IM, or browser without a hitch.
Megatasking is about streaming HD quality video to media extenders through
out your home and still being able to play or create on the same PC
with robust performance.
Megatasking is the future reality of PC performance. Explore the possibilities.
Your processor should not just be adequate—it should exceed your
demands. AMD Athlon™ 64 FX processors enable performance tuning,
so you can discover the true potential of your personal computer. Break
the speed limit; it’s YOUR processor!
A fast processor is one thing, but a fast computer system is another.
HyperTransport™ technology featured on AMD Athlon™ 64 FX
processors is key. With 2000MHz bi-directional HyperTransport™ technology
on each processor, you have fast, low-latency connections in your computer
system. With free flowing data, you can feel confident your applications
can operate at their maximum potential.
Just like corsairs once dominated the seas as the fastest
ships around, Corsair Dominator memory is the fastest memory around.

Western
Digital Raptor X WD1500AHFD 150GB10,000 RPM 16MB
Cache Serial ATA150 HD
Western Digital has meant bleeding-edge hard drive
development, and the Raptor X is a killer example. As they like to say,
it’s the first drive with a view! Why? To let see the 10,000 RPM
spindle speed and learn the real meaning of “motion blur” as
it zips by faster than you can see. The drive uses state-of-the-art
technology, with special polycarbonate lenses and carbon nanotube fasteners
to allow you to be in on the action.
Why is this speed increase so important? Any time you perceive a slow
down in your system, it’s mostly likely due to the seek time in
getting your HD to find whatever it is that’s asked for, either
by you, or some game or video. While manufacturers have been building
larger and larger drives, they weren’t any faster, and so it was
taking longer and longer to search through them. Western Digital has
offered a solution – use smaller drives at faster rates! When you
combine the reliability and speed of the new WD drives, you see an unbeatable
combination certain to be wanted by every computer enthusiast around!
Face it: you want it for the cool value, but do you need it? Yes!
