Is the Athlon 6000+ Windsor (3.0 gigahertz) 2 x 1 megabyte L2 Cache 89 Watt processor going to be discontinued soon?

The model number is: ADA6000CZBOX
 
The Brisbane only has 1 megabyte of Level 2 Cache while the 89 Watt Windsor has 2 megabytes of Level 2 Cache.

Edit: Is Advanced Micro Devices going to push Dual-Core processors any further than the Athlon 6400+ model? Or are all higher end processors now going to be the Phenom Tri-Core and Quad-Cores?

Not sure, but I've noticed that Newegg has deactivated several Windsor CPUs.

My guess is yeah... probably sometime early next year.
 
I dont think you will see to many 90nm. in the future. The F3 stepping Windsors X2 5600/6000/6400 were good processors. Ran alittle hotter than the 65nm. brisbane. But the F3 Windors were a little faster clock for clock than the brisbane. Both had about the same overclocking, about 3.3 to 3.4 without cranking up the voltage..

how's the 5000+ for overclocking? Using the stock cooler of course. :P
 
my black edition could go stable to 3.4 with a fair amount of vcore, but 3.2ghz at 1.41v stable
non-BE i'd be thinking like 2.8 on a stock cooler

I've been wondering, what IS the difference between the BE and the normal version? Anyway though, that's not a whole lot faster... I was hoping you were gonna say something like 3.0GHz, I might try it just for the heck of it though...

BE has unlocked multiplier.. or are you referring to some other difference between the two?

I was under the impression unless it was a BE it was locked multiplier but you could still bump the FSB.
 
Windsor FX 62 was unlocked. The FX used to be the only unlocked one untill they starting calling them BE. Dont know if they will release another one by FX. Dont really see the point if they have a BE model.
