Intel Itanium Processor Touchstone
12/25/2003 11:25 PMIn the four years since the first public demonstration of 64-bit
Windows in 1999, the OS has been fully ported and now runs native
Itanium instructions for both the kernel and supporting processes. The
LLP64 Windows pointer model (int and long remain 32 bits wide, "long
long" and pointers are defined as 64 bits wide) provided for minimal
code changes during the port. With the exception of architectural
specific design in the kernel (some examples in table below), 32-bit
and 64-bit Windows share common source code. For example, the Windows
user interface remains the same. All the familiar Windows tools from
Microsoft Notepad to Microsoft Internet Explorer can be produced in
32-bit or 64-bit images. The same holds true for application
development: 32-bit code and 64-bit code can share common source.

AMD Readies New PGA939 Processor
AMD Readies New PGA939 Processor
07/29/2004 09:42 AMAdvanced Micro Devices may be preparing a new microprocessor in PGA939
packaging to broaden the lineup of offerings for the emerging
infrastructure. The new chip will have 1MB of cache and 1000MHz
HyperTransport bus, representing a lower-speed bin of the AMD Athlon
64 FX-53 microprocessor. Mainboard maker
ECS has updated the list of
supporting chips for latest mainboard based on VIA K8T800 Pro chipset
for Socket 939 processors with AMD Athlon 64 3600+ product name. The
SKU with 1MB of cache and 1000MHz HT bus has not been announced yet,
but a mentioning by a mainboard maker may indicate a short release of
the processor.
Additional details about the AMD Athlon 64 3600+ are not clear, but
X-bit labs’ analyst Ilya Gavrichenkov suggested that the product may
be a cut-down version of the AMD Athlon 64 FX-53 with core-clock
reduced to 2.20GHz. Specifications of the AMD Athlon 64 3600+ look
similar compared to those of the
AMD Athlon 64 FX-51 product, with exception of
1000MHz HT bus, that is currently not been supplied by AMD.

dual-core processor. During demonstrations held at the company's
Austin facilities, AMD is showing an HP ProLiant DL585 server powered
by four dual-core AMD Opteron(tm) processors manufactured on 90nm
silicon-on-insulator process technology. With a simple upgrade path to
more efficient computing, based on AMD's existing system
infrastructure and industry-standard architecture, enterprise
customers can expect more efficient processing power without the
penalties of increased power consumption and heat dissipation. The
dual-core AMD Opteron processor for servers and workstations is
expected to offer the best performance per watt in the market when AMD
plans to make it available in mid-2005.
