| AMD Prepare to Launch Power Efficient Processor |
On recent roadmap, AMD revealed its plan to release Energy Efficient Processor. The Energy Efficient Processors will have a slightly redesigned Sleep, Power and Suspend states. These states are controlled by the operating system, but will require BIOS updates. They also revealed launch date for each new chips including the not-Energy Efficient AM2 Socket Processor.
AMD will also soon unveil a new set of desktop Sempron and Athlon 64s specifically geared for HTPC and other low noise / low power devices. The goal is to build processors that do not need a lot of cooling -- specifically to reduce the noise of the overall system to the 27dBA range for idle and 30dBA under load. One of the upcoming Windows MCE requirements for CPUs is that the processor fan not exceed 30dBA for MCE certification.
