Starting today, you’ll be able to purchase AMD’s highest performing desktop quad-core to date; the AMD Phenom X4 9950 Black Edition Quad-Core Processor (2.6GHz).  With a retail price of $235, this is an affordable quad-core processor for those that want maximum performance while mega-tasking.  And the best part; it’s an unlocked part, meaning it can be overclocked using our AMD OverDrive utility.

The other two parts are the Energy-Efficient AMD Phenom X4 9350e & 9150 Quad-Core Processors.  These parts run/retail at 2.0GHz/$195 and 1.8GHz/$175 respectively and consume no more than 65-watts. And these processors are designed for small form factors with low power consumption, such as a home theater PC.
