What is AMD Athlon II X2 250 processor?
The AMD Athlon II X2 250 was a desktop processor with 2 cores, launched in June 2009. It is part of the Athlon II X2 lineup, using the Regor architecture with Socket AM3. Athlon II X2 250 has 2MB of L2 cache and operates at 3 GHz.
How do I overclock my CPU AMD Athlon X2 250?
To overclock the Athlon II X2 250, we increased the HyperTransport base clock from 200MHz to 260MHz, while simultaneously dropping back the HT multiplier so the overall frequency was around 2GHz – more than enough for a single CPU system.
How much does the AMD Athlon II X2 cost?
AMD Athlon II X2 250 / 3 GHz processor Series Specs & Prices. Model AMD Athlon II X2 250 / 3 GHz processor. ADX250OCK23GQ $28.95. AMD Athlon II X2 250 / 3 GHz processor adx250ock23gm. AMD Athlon II X2 250 / 3 GHz processor adx250ocgmbox. AMD Athlon II X2 250 / 3 GHz processor adx250ocgqbox $179.95.
Which is HyperTransport speed for AMD Athlon II X2 250?
AMD’s Athlon II X2 250 is compliant with Hypertransport 3.0, operating at 2.0GHz: data is sent twice per clock cycle (DDR) so the final duplexed speed of HT3 is 4.0GHz. This is sent along a 16-bit/16-bit link, which translates to 16GB/s of bus bandwidth between the CPU and the chipset.
Is the AMD Athlon II compatible with Socket AM2?
Likely no. AMD’s Athlon II family is built for Socket AM3 and Socket AM2+ motherboards. While the Athlon II has dual memory controllers, so it can work with DDR2 and DDR3 system memory, the majority of socket AM2 motherboards don’t offer 45nm CPU compatibility.
Which is better Athlon II X2 250 or E5200?
The question is; does the higher frequency, DDR3 support and smaller manufacturing process of the Athlon II X2 250 yield greater or comparable overclockability to the E5200, and what is their respective performance for the pound?
