AMD Athlon X2: The original Athlon (the ancient Greek word for "Champion/trophy of the games") had the distinction of being the first desktop processor to reach speeds of one gigahertz (GHz). AMD Athlon™ X2 dual-core processors put the power of dual-core technology on the desktop. Athlon X2 Dual-core processors contain two processing cores, residing on one chip, that perform calculations on two streams of data to increase efficiency and speed while running multiple programs and the new generation of multi-threaded software. For end-users this means a significant increase in response and performance when running multiple applications simultaneously.
