AMD today updated its roadmap with another multi-core processor, to slot between its dual and quad-core processors - Phenom triple-core processors. The new Phenom triple-core processors feature three processing cores on a single die and based on AMD’s Barcelona architecture, which launched last week in Opteron form.
The new triple-core processors will feature similar specifications as its upcoming Phenom X2 and X4 brethren.
