The AMD 900 chipset series is identical to the AMD 800 chipset series except for the fact that it is only found on Socket AM3+ mainboards, whereas its predecessor is only found on Socket AM3 mainboards. It was released in 2011. This allows consumers to easily identify the Socket through the chipset name.
HYPR-RX enables Radeon Anti-Lag, Boost, and Super Resolution. In supported games, this is done automatically according to a user's AMD Software settings; otherwise, it requires some configuration in-game. HYPR-RX requires an RDNA3 GPU. [11] Radeon Chill lowers performance when the AMD drivers detect idle moments in games and can set frame rate ...
The AMD 700 chipset series (also called as AMD 7-Series Chipsets) is a set of chipsets designed by ATI for AMD Phenom processors to be sold under the AMD brand. Several members were launched in the end of 2007 and the first half of 2008, others launched throughout the rest of 2008.
AMD K6 – the K6 was not based on the K5 and was instead based on the Nx686 processor that was being designed by NexGen when that company was bought by AMD. The K6 was generally pin-compatible with the Intel Pentium (unlike NexGen's existing processors). AMD K6-2 – an improved K6 with the addition of the 3DNow! SIMD instructions.
Llano AMD Fusion (K10 cores + Redwood-class GPU) (launch Q2 2011, this is the first AMD APU) uses Socket FM1 Bulldozer architecture; Bulldozer, Piledriver, Steamroller, Excavator (2011–2017) [ edit ]
However, such releases never became the basis for the development of coreboot beyond AMD's family 15h, as they were subsequently halted. [2] AGESA became particularly relevant with the AM4 platform, which AMD designed for futureproofing, and as of May 2019 has served as the base for three different generations of CPUs based on its Zen architecture.
Sinkclose is a security vulnerability in certain AMD microprocessors dating back to 2006 that was made public by IOActive security researchers on August 9, 2024. [1] IOActive researchers Enrique Nissim and Krzysztof Okupski presented their findings at the 2024 DEF CON security conference in Las Vegas [2] in a talk titled "AMD Sinkclose: Universal Ring-2 Privilege Escalation".
Because the 5x86 is the equal of a Pentium 75 MHz processor in benchmarks, AMD later marketed the chip as "Am5x86-P75". [ 8 ] Sales of the Am5x86 were an important source of revenue for AMD at a time when lengthy delays in bringing the AMD K5 to production were threatening the company's profitability.
