AMD · Athlon 64 · 2004 · 939
The AMD Athlon 64 3800+ (S939) is a desktop processor with 1 core, released in 2004 at an MSRP of $324. It is part of the Athlon 64 lineup, using the Athlon 64 platform, and fits the 939 socket. Internally, it is built on the "K8" architecture. It operates at a fixed 2.4 GHz. AMD manufactures the "K8" silicon on a 90nm process node. Its multiplier is locked, so any overclocking has to come from raising the base clock rather than the multiplier. This processor supports DDR memory. With a TDP of 89W, the Athlon 64 3800+ (S939) sits in a typical power envelope for a modern desktop CPU. This processor has no integrated graphics — a discrete GPU is required. The cache hierarchy consists of 64KB of L1 and 512KB of L2 cache. There is no L3 cache on this processor.
Venice die, 512KB L2. Popular single-core gaming CPU before dual-core became mainstream.
