[Rumour] AMD Phenom II X4 900T Details
Along with the imminent release of its Phenom II X6 CPUs, AMD will also be releasing Phenom II X4 900T quad-core CPUs. The main difference from the current Phenom II X4 900 products is that the 900T variants will be based on Thuban - i.e. X6 - with 2 cores disabled. The codename for 900T, as we know, is Zosma.
900T will have two major advantages over the 900 series. First of all, the turbo boost introduced in Thuban will carry over to Zosma. So, at least one of 900T's four cores will be running at a higher clock speed, at least momentarily (details of AMD's turbo feature is still unknown). Furthermore, the 900T will offer lower power consumption. In every other way, we can expect at least the same, if not some minor improvements.
