CPU, AMD, FX-8150
The AMD processors can run high clock frequencies, this one it even beyond that, 8805.64 MHz, to be precise.

A Thai overclocker under the name "ksin" took dibs and was to able to run the chip using a base clock speed of 303.29 MHz, and multiplier of 29.0x. A scorching 1.86V core voltage was used.

It hasn't been much of an ARM wrestle in the tablet space up to this point, and it's not because AMD and Intel haven't talked the talk. For the most part, they just haven't walked the walk, which has allowed ARM to dominate the category. That could change once Windows 8 comes into view in a few months,...

AMD's FX-8150 was only mildly competitive with previous-generation Intel processors such as the Core i5-2500K, but to make matters worse, Intel launched its new "Ivy Bridge" Core processors that promise small but sizable performance improvements over its predecessors. The Core i5-3570K, for example,...

unnyvale-based AMD Inc. has today launched two new FX Series processors, the FX-6200 hexa-core and the FX-4170 quad-core, and announced price reductions for the October-released FX-8120 and FX-6100.

The FX-6200 and FX-4170 are made on 32 nm process technology, and feature an AM3+ package, a TDP...

CPU, AMD, A8-3870K
Overclocker "Christian Ney" of the HWBOT community claims to have cracked the 6 GHz clock speed mark with an AMD A8-3870K APU, with all four of its cores enabled. The feat consisted of a clock speed of 6067.7 MHz achieved using a base clock of 258.2 MHz and multiplier of 47.0x. The memory was clocked...

The message at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this year was loud and clear: Ultrabooks are here to stay. Intel finds itself in similar territory after spearheading the once hugely popular netbook market, and so does AMD, which has a chance to take a mulligan and do things differently this...

f Intel is right about the high percentage of new PCs bought that will be Ultrabooks – and the $300 million it's putting behind the Ultrabook concept should help with that – AMD needs a processor to put in budget thin and light notebooks as well. That's what the next-generation Trinity APU is designed...

There you have it, folks. Floating over this text is the CPU-Z record that proves it: four days after Andre Yang broke the chip speed overclocking record with AMD's Bulldozer, he's done it again. The chip maker was eerily prescient when it said it expected others to beat the record and that unnatural...

CPU, AMD
Just last month, AMD staged an event to squeeze an amazing 8429.38 MHz out of its FX-8150 processor. The highest-clocked CPU in the world—it was a big production. And now they've been beat by a team of one.

Andre Yang eked out a 32 MHz advantage over AMD's team—but he did it without the sponsorship,...
