The engineering models of servers processors barcelona already exist: it was possible to see them in Computex 2007 in the beginning of June and to the end of August they will reach also press representatives .
But here we still far from the release of the desktop processors class phenom. Since they will be released only in the fourth quarter, encounter with the engineering models is planned in autumn. However, today it is possible to reveal several photographs of phenom generation processors .
We start from the bad news - the owner of these processors did not have a compatible with them motherboard, although theoretically they must be compatible with any motherboard socket AM2+ or Socket AM2. For this reason it impossible (until the moment) to see screen shot or test results of these processors .
As you see, the processor are clearly distinguished by legs; therefore these are actually the desktop processors socket AM2+, but not servers barcelona processors with contact areas instead of legs.
Unfortunately, it is sufficiently complicated to interpret the marking of these engineering models . We can assume that before us processors with frequencies 1.6-1.8 GHz, 512 KB cache in the second level on each core.. Most likely, before us precisely the four core processor with the divided cache in the third level, because they will begin to reach the market in the first stage. This processors is released on 23- th week of 2007, in the beginning of June. We are waiting for test results .
