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™ 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™ 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.
