About the AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ CPU
The AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ is an end-of-life 2-core (2-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q3 2007. It is part of AMD's Athlon 64 X2 lineup, which is based on the Brisbane microarchitecture. The 64 X2 6000+ is compatible with AMD Socket AM2 motherboards and is fabricated on a 65 nm manufacturing process. It is bundled a Yes cooler.
Memory and Cache
The Athlon 64 X2 6000+ supports DDR2 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Athlon 64 X2 6000+ has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 256 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Athlon 64 X2 6000+ features 2 total cores which can process 2 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 3.1 GHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Athlon 64 X2 6000+ does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
About the AMD Phenom II X4 960T Black Edition CPU
The AMD Phenom II X4 960T Black Edition is an end-of-life 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q2 2010. It is part of AMD's Phenom II X4 lineup, which is based on the Zosma microarchitecture. The X4 960T Black Edition is compatible with AMD Socket AM3 motherboards and is fabricated on GlobalFoundries's 45 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Phenom II X4 960T Black Edition supports DDR2, DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Phenom II X4 960T Black Edition has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 128 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 6 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Phenom II X4 960T Black Edition features 4 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 3.0 GHz, and it can boost up to 3.4 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is unlocked, enabling overclocking for those seeking to push the CPU's performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Phenom II X4 960T Black Edition does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
