AMD FX-6300 3.5 GHz Upto 3.8 GHz AM3+ Socket 6 Cores 6 Threads 6 MB L2 8 MB L3 Desktop Processor

Experience seamless multitasking and a powerful performance with this 32 nm 6-core desktop processor. It features AMD Turbo Core technology to push your core frequencies to the limit when you need it most. The easy-to-use AMD OverDrive and AMD Catalyst Control Center software suites further add to the performance.

The special Turbo Core technology helps boost the performance of those applications which require it the most. The AMD processor has a balanced, smart cache, i.e., it comes with a shared L3 cache (up to 8 MB) so as to improve scheduling and pre-fetch capabilities. It has 64-ways (16-ways/sub-cache) and increased data queue sizes. The processor has a shared floating point (FP) scheduler and dual 128-bit floating point engines, which can group together for 256-bit AVX instructions, or even separately with each core.

The processor can transport a single 16-bit link at the rate of 5600MT per second. It can transfer up to 8 GB per second with the HyperTransport I/O bandwidth feature and up to 16 GB per second in HyperTransport Generation 3.0 mode.

The processor has a high-bandwidth, low-latency integrated memory controller. It supports up to DDR3-1866 with 1 DPC (DIMM per Channel) in single memory slot motherboard designs. It also supports low voltage memories of 1.35 V and 1.2 V. It has a memory bandwidth of up to 29.9 GB per second for DDR3. It also has pre-fetcher improvements.

It has silicon enhancements for better performance, security & sustainability of existing and future virtualization environments, which provide virtualized apps with direct and rapid access to their allocated memory. The IOMMU feature to supports address translation & access protection on DMA transfers. It also provides user-level application and the virtual machine guest OS. It helps with address translation and access control, device isolation, device assignment in virtualized systems, and it has trusted boot support and unified interrupt management.

This technology automatically and instantly adjusts performance states and features, based on processor performance. The C6 power state puts the cores into a lower power state for quieter operation. It has a separate memory power controller. It has an I/O-based c-state interface. It works automatically without the need for BIOS enablement or drivers. The power can be switched on or off within a single clock-cycle, conserving energy without affecting performance.

This processor has been made with the AMD Turbo Core technology that is designed to dynamically adjust performance to provide the best experience while you run applications and games with high-end graphics.
