We will, however, recommend that you take a look at a few recentВ articles to get familiar with the underlying technology and components that comprise AMD'sВ Dragon platform. As such, we have already covered them in-depth here on HotHardware in previous articles, so we won't do the same again here. In fact, most of itsВ core componentsВ have already been available for quite some time now.

The new Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition is an update to AMD's Dragon Platform.В The Dragon Platform itselfВ is not new, however. **Note: for DDR3-1333, AM3 boards will support 1-DIMM-per-channel 1333MHz *Note: MC configurable for dual 64-bit channels for simultaneous read/writes GLOBALFOUNDARIES Fab 1 module 1 Dresden, GermanyД¤5nm (.045-micron) DSL Silicon on Insulator (SOI) Socket AM3 938-pin organic micro pin grid array (micro-PGA) (backward compatible with Socket AM2) Up to 37.3 GB/s bandwidth (Up to 21.3GB/s memory bandwidth)

The 965 BE's differentiating features are, as we've mentioned, it's higher frequency of 3.4GHz and also its higher maximum TDP of 140W. There are some slight differences to its specifications, however, which we have listed for you below. The Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition is based on the same core as all current socket AM3, quad-core Phenom II processors and it as the same cache configuration and overall feature set. Whereas the 955 clocked in at a speedy 3.2GHz, the new 965 arrives at a lofty 3.4GHz, making it the highest clocked CPU to come from AMD to date. As you can probably surmise from its name-if you're familiar with AMD's naming convention-the Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition is virtually identical to the 955 it supplants at the top of AMD's desktop processor line-up, save for the 965's higher default clock speed. AMD is launching a brand new flagship desktop processor today, dubbed the Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition.
