Athlon MP 2400+ Review
AMD has a new pair of studs in the stable.
Michael (Oreo) Falcon 12/10/02
In August we took a look at the next generation
of MP processors from AMD. The newly introduced Thoroughbred core was to
replace the current pride of the AMD stables the Palomino. Running the new 0.13-micron
copper process cores the Thoroughbred's were running cooler while consuming
less power. AMD was putting the Palomino out to pasture with the arrival of
the MP 2200+ processors. Well we are here today
to introduce you to the new STUD in the AMD stables the AMD MP2400+ processors.

mark. AMD is known for their ability to bring end users power and performance
at a price that doesn't break the bank. The MP2400+ utilizes the 266MHz 0.13-micron
copper process Thoroughbred core just like it's sibling the MP2200+. Gaining
a 200MHz increase over the MP2200+ processor, the MP2400+ looks to be a true
workhorse from the AMD stables. So let's take a pair of these MP2400+ processors
for a run and see how this pair of Thoroughbreds handles the everyday life of
the common workhorse.
