AMD 25W Dual-Core processors – Athlon II X2 520u and Athlon II X2 620u

AMD is ready to roll out two Regor-based 45nm dual core 25W CPUs. These two CPUs run at 1.8GHz and 1.6GHz clock speeds. 1.8GHz one is branded as Athlon II X2 620u and will be launched  later in Q1 2010.

The Athlon II X2 520u runs at 1.6GHz clocked speed and packs 2MB cache will be launched in Q4 2009, but we do not see any signs of its availability yet.

Clearly, those TDPs are perfect for the folks who want more power from their netbooks. Without any doubt, it will leave Atom processors in the dust in terms of speed and raw computation. That said, until we get our hands on it, nothing much can be said
