AMD optimizes Athlon II processors for Windows 7 Quote: AMD optimizes Athlon II processors for Windows 7
Hardware By Aharon Etengoff Monday, October 19, 2009 22:26 AMD has rolled out several Athlon II processors which are "fully optimized" for Windows 7. According to AMD spokesperson Brent Barry, the most recent additions to the Athlon II family will allow manufacturers to design a wide range of "sleek" desktop platforms, including all-in-one and small form factor PCs. "Many households are investing in second and third PCs to perform specific roles for individual family members," Barry told TG Daily. 
"As such, the full AMD Athlon II processor family now delivers high-performance, low-power dual-, triple- and quad-core processors to meet a [variety] of computing needs."
However, Barry emphasized that AMD remained "focused" on delivering a "real" PC experience across all of its platforms.
"Our goal is to provide an affordable and real PC experience for the user - which includes the accelerated delivery of HD video,” said Barry. "That is why our Athlon II chips offer far better performance for significantly less money than our competitors." More at: TG Daily - AMD optimizes Athlon II processors for Windows 7 |
