AMD has been busy pushing its Phenom II platform with the recent launch of the Phenom II X4 955 BE processor. Today, AMD has introduced the new dual-core AMD Athlon X2 7850 Black Edition processor. AMD has priced this 2.8GHz dual-core Athlon X2 processor (Rs. 3,500 approx.), targeting the mainstream computer market .AMD Athlon X2 7850 is built using the same 65nm process technology used in quad-core Phenoms.
The Athlon X2 7850 is clocked at 2.8GHz and has two cores disabled. However, it leaves 2MB L3 cache intact along with 512kb L2 Cache per core.The Athlon X2 7850 competes with 45nm process technology built dual-core 2.5GHz Intel Pentium E5200. Compared with Intel E5200's Thermal Design Power rating of 65W, AMD's Athlon X2 7850 has 30W higher TDP rating of 95W - blame it on 65nm die. Since it is based on the Phenom architecture, this dual core 7850 BE lacks all the advancements offered in 45nm Phenom II line of processors.
AMD pushes Athlon X2 7850 as performance-per-dollar CPU for 'enhanced digital experience and tweaking the systems for making all latest games run.' This processor is ideally meant for enthusiasts looking for some casual gaming experience with their entry level graphics cards.
