Advanced Micro Devices says its badly needed quad-core desktop processors are on the way, and they'll arrive bearing a new name.
AMD will soon begin selling its low-power, quad-core "Barcelona" Opteron processors.
AMD has fleshed out its server stategy for the next two years, with a promise of a faster version of its Barcelona quad-core chip later this year.
AMD has unveiled two new Phenom X3 8000 chips, the world's only triple-core processors.
AMD has confirmed it is delaying the shipment of two of its new quad-core Phenom desktop processors.
Recent benchmarks of AMD's new 45nm Phenom II desktop CPUs reveal them to be very competitive when compared with Intel chips at similar prices, but is it enough to bring AMD back from the brink?
In the world of processors, attention seems firmly focused on the fast-paced desktop and mobile markets. But that doesn't mean that there's nothing going on in server-land.
Company president and chief operating officer Dirk Meyer is being groomed to succeed Hector Ruiz, but first he must prove that last year's engineering mistakes were an aberration.
Multicore processors have been around since 2005, when Intel shipped its first dual-core processor and the advantages of many cores have been widely touted, but a working model for costing software to work with them is still on its way.

If you thought dual cores were over the top, get ready. Intel presents the Core 2 Extreme QX6700, a single CPU with four distinct processing cores. The first quad-core CPU will remain an enthusiast part for a while, but as a glimpse of the future, it's clear that clock speed is out and core counts are in.
AMD's Phenom II processor is designed to boost the company's presence in the desktop market. But how does it fare against Intel's latest Core i7 (Nehalem) chip?
While the higher power consumption is a slight concern, the X4 955 proves that AMD is back in the performance game and ready to play hard ball. Bring on the next generation.
From a do-it-yourself perspective, we're mostly unimpressed with AMD's new 2.5GHz Phenom X4 9850 quad-core desktop processor.
AMD's 'Shanghai' processors are the company's first chips to exploit the improved performance and efficiency of 45nm technology. ZDNet's tests show that they have made up important ground on Intel's Xeons.
