Summary
About the AMD Phenom X3 8650 CPU
The AMD Phenom X3 8650 is an end-of-life 3-core (3-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q2 2008. It is part of AMD's Phenom X3 lineup, which is based on the Toliman microarchitecture. The X3 8650 is compatible with AMD Socket AM2+ motherboards and is fabricated on a 65 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Phenom X3 8650 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 2 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Phenom X3 8650 features 3 total cores which can process 3 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.3 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 Phenom X3 8650 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 Athlon XP 2800+ CPU
The AMD Athlon XP 2800+ is an end-of-life 1-core (1-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q1 2003 with a suggested retail price of $375. It is part of AMD's Athlon XP lineup, which is based on the Barton microarchitecture. The XP 2800+ is compatible with AMD Socket A motherboards and is fabricated on a 130 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Athlon XP 2800+ 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.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Athlon XP 2800+ is a single-core and single-threaded CPU, making it not capable of processing multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.1 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 XP 2800+ does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
