AMD is cranking out processors in every price range and market segment faster than most of us can keep track of. They've released everything from dual core Athlon 2 X2 to Quad core Phenom 2 X4 and done so in an almost impossibly fast schedule. The new Athlon 2 line is more for budget minded end users and we've seen quad core Athlon 2 X4's as low as $99 which is unheard of for any quad core CPU until now.
