AMD plans 45nanometer quadcore PHENOM FX processors for 2009!

AMD's planning to supress core2duo's supremacy through its "once legendry" FX type of processors with unlocked multipliers raising the clock speeds of AMD cpu's to sky.Though these Phenom FX cores will follow the DENEB fx core , it is unsure that AMD will roll out these processors with the name PHENOM FX.

Most interesting fact about these processors is that they will introduce yet another socket type "AM3" ,the habit of AMD which everyone dislikes. This time AMD has promised that its backward compatible with AM2 sockets but vic cersa is not true and not applicable to these phenom fx am3 socket processors due on mid 2009.

Another promising part of this highly expected chip is the fabrication technology , which is 45 nm and even a novice computer user like me is aware of the success of 45nm INTEL penryn processors .
