Future Athlon 64s to include SSE3 support

Published by

TechReport writes that the next revision of AMD's Hammer CPU core will include SSE3 support, among other new features, according to this talk given by Kevin McGrath, AMD's chief Hammer architect, at Stanford University. The video source isn't terribly high res, unfortunately. McGrath describes new features added to Hammer since its launch, but like the slide, he's a little fuzzy about when various changes have been implemented. Obviously, some of the features haven't yet arrived, though.
