phenom-290x216AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) will aparently revive the FX-line of processors in 2009. We still don’t know much about this new line or the specifications of these processors, but what we do know is that they will be based on the Deneb FX core, meaning four processing engines, with shared level-three cache and based on a 45 nm manufacturing process.

AMD lost its crown in 2006 when Intel introduced the Core 2 Duo processors and this forced AMD to focus on mid and entry-level offerings instead, ending production of the Althon FX.

Most likely these new upcoming FX processors will have a low price and clock-speeds higher than their future mainstream brethren. Future AMD processors produced using 45nm process technology are expected to reach  4.0-4.4Ghz using the HT3 interconnect. We will probably see this new line of processors live, somewhere in mid-2009.
