Finally, it seems AMD is shaking off the inertia. What Intel Core Duo processors did to AMD 64bit and X2 was quite spectacular. I have been AMD fan ever since good old 486 days and was rooting for AMD to wake up and get back in the race quickly. It seems they did and they are! The new Phenom X3 processor is the offering from AMD stable.
Aimed mainly at gamers and mainstream desktop market, Phenom X3 comes with three cores on the same die. The folks at AMD claim that this new offering will be atleast 30% faster than their two core brethren. Other than mainstream PC market, there is a Phenom lack edition available that is primarily aimed at gaming enthusiasts who like to over clock. Quite well suited to High definition videos, Phenom series is expected to upturn the trend in AMD futures.
