L - 2004 Hot News: "01/2004 - Announcing the MACH Athlon64 64-bit Desktop Computer
Based on the revolutionary Mach Series Desktops the new Mach Athlon64 AMD based Desktop Workstation is the world's first 64-bit Personal SuperComputer and the ultimate high-performance computing solution extending the ubiquitous x86 architecture to accommodate future 64-bit processing, while still fully compatible with current 32-bit architecture. It is designed to provide unprecedented application performance for consumers and businesses by tremendously expanding data capacity and removing the memory bandwidth limitations of 32-bit processors. It also offers unequalled investment protection as it is based on the long-established x86 instruction set, as the AMD Athlon 64 processor is built on existing standards enabling investment protection, lower total cost of ownership and development. The AMD Athlon 64 processor has an integrating a DDR memory controller in the processor, revolutionizing the way x86-based processors access main memory. By running at the processor�s core frequency, an integrated memory controller greatly increases bandwidth directly available to the processor at significantly reduced latencies. Additional features include HyperTransport technology, a high-speed low latency point-to-point link designed to increase the communication speed between integrated circuits in computers, servers, embedded systems, networking, and telecommunications equipment for up to 48 times faster than some existing technologies. HyperTransport technology helps reduce the number of buses in a system, which can reduce system bottlenecks and enable today's faster microprocessors to use system memory more efficiently in high-end multiprocessor systems. The Mach Athlon64 AMD based Desktop Workstation can help you tackle even the toughest jobs, while reducing compositing and rendering time. It l"
