This page will show all objects that classify as AMD Athlon 64. The Athlon 64 has been made by Advanced Micro Devices, a multinational semiconductor that develops microprocessors, chipsets and graphic processors (ATi). AMD is the second largest microprocessor manufacturer after Intel and has active since 1969.
In 1982 AMD signed a contract with Intel to become a licensed second-source manufacturer. IBM wanted the Intel 8086/8088 but IBM's policy stated that at least two suppliers should be available. This is why the first AMD processors always have 'Intel' printed somewhere. After a while AMD didn't get the license to produce Intel processors anymore and thus AMD started cloning the 386 and launched the Am386. Since the AMD K5, AMD didn't clone the Intel processor but started developing on their own. The K5 wasn't a big success but thanks to NexGen that merged into AMD the K6 could be made. AMD could compete and has a range of processors today including six-core Opterons and a good performing quad-core for the desktop called the Phenom II X4.
AMD also acquired ATi to get in-house graphics chips. These are integrated in chipsets to create cheap motherboard solutions. In the future (The Future is Fusion as AMD calls it) the plans are to integrate the graphics chip into the processor.
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 'ADA3200AEP5AP'
Launched at 23th September of 2003 along with the Athlon FX. The normal Athlon 64 used single-channel memory and could work with 200MHz DDR-SDRAM (DDR400, PC3200). The Athlon FX was aimed at the enthousiast or gamer and featured a dual-channel memory controller but unfortunatly it also required a different socket and Registered memory just like the Opteron.
Basically both the Athlon 64 and Athlon 64 FX are identical to the Opteron. The FX version even uses the same socket and is able to run in Opteron motherboards. > Read more
The 3500+ was a good performing product for quite a while. The first 3500+ with Clawhammer core (130nm) was announced half-way 2004. The first Venice (90nm) core was introduced in April 2005 and this CPU was made in the 46th week of 2005. Quite a bit later and the first dual-core processors were around by then. > Read more
Just like this Athlon 64 3500+ but with a different production date.
Both have the Venice E6 core. As time passed by (since the first Athlon 64 / Opteron engineering sample) AMD was tuning the existing cores to make small improvements (better on-die memory controller, scalability, bugfixes, etc.) which means there are many different CPU's that carry the number '3500+' You can find the 3500+ on S939 with Clawhammer CG, Newcastle CG, Winchester D0, San Diege E4, Venice E3 and E6 and Manchester E4. The latter is actually a dual-core chip but with one core disabled so effectively it's a single-core 
.
Disabling parts on a chip is something that happens quite often. The performance products have more cores, L2-cache or something similar. In case one core or a part of the L2-cache is defective the chip has to be rejected. To avoid this chip manufacturers (not only AMD but also ATi, NVIDIA and Intel for example) disable parts of the chip and sell it for a lower price. > Read more
