Athlon X4 Missing?

[edit]
  • I could perhaps have missed it but I see no mention of it anywhere on this page. Does X4 use a different micro architecture I thought it used Kaveri, that is one of the Athlon architectures is it not? Also this page is all over the place. It talks about Athlon from as far back as 2009 yet it says Athlon was launched in 2018 and refers to the modern chips in the shorthand box. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FEA8:E99E:9800:C960:EBEE:1B5B:CF1C (talk) 17:33, 11 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Fastest x86 chip in the world

[edit]

> Subsequently, from August 1999 until January 2002, this initial K7 processor was the fastest x86 chip in the world.

This claim based on a single phrase fro cpu-collection.de which refers AMD own docs and nothing else. I think it should be deleted. Being there, I easily recall that P4 was better at multi-media and overall number-crunching, while Athlon was faster in games. Of course, the whole picture is much more complex (e.g. Coppermine was first to switch to internal L2 cache).

So, I propose to delete this statement. 176.52.35.234 (talk) 22:30, 10 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
