Title: Prosessor question !
Post by: lasse on June 21, 2000, 04:43:00 AM
I just wonder, what is the difference between AMD 1GHZ Athlon and AMD 1GHZ Thunderbird ?

They even got the same price.

Thunderbird has the cache in the processor itself. Athlon has this cache into the black box, but not into the processor. So, expect a better performance in Thunderbird.

Read all about it at http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.html?i=1252 (http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.html?i=1252)

Hightlights: copper vs aluminum, 350mz vs full speed L2 cache, slot 1 Vs socketA, etc.etc.
