AMD Socket AM2 CPUs to support DDR 2 800

[Bio-Hazard]

"AMD's upcoming Socket AM2 single- and dual-core processors look set to support 800MHz DDR 2 SDRAM when the new interconnect is launched in Q2 - almost certainly at the Computex show in June - a variety of sources citing AMD documentation have claimed.

Website Xbit Labs cites a "confidential" AMD document which states: "Performance and mainstream AMD socket AM2 dual-core and single-core processors [are] designed to support DDR2-800 at launch.""

Right choice for AMD, it was time start to support DDR2, Intel supports DDR2 already. Now AMD will start doing even better processors - and older processors price will drop.
