We just received word that AMD plans to launch a total of four six-core CPUs and while some of them will share the same specification, it will not be the case for the TDP.
The top one
is going to be called Phenom II X6 1075T and it will have 125W. Some people
have suggested that there will be a faster version of this CPU with 140W but we
are not aware of that at press time.
The runner
up is Phenom II X6 1055T and this one will come in 125 and 95W variants. The last one is named Phenom II X6 1035T and comes with lower frequency and 95W. We
heard that the entire line-up will end up at lower than 3GHz clock speed but we
don’t know the exact values, at least not at press time.
The launch
date is Q2 2010 but we don’t have any better date than that.
