No. If you want dual CPUs from AMD, you need to get opteron CPUs.
Assuming that your question is "what are the characteristics of the AMD Athlon 64FX?": The Athlon 64 was the first 64-bit microprocessor aimed at regular consumers like you and me (as opposed to the Opteron which was AMD's first 64-bit CPU but it was intended to be used in Workstations and Servers). The FX part of the name differentiates it from the Athlon 64 in that it has all of its multipliers unlocked and has a higher clock speed. It was marketed toward gamers.
Intel = buissness and work AMD= gaming and raw power
AMDs 'dual core' CPUs, those that contain 2 CPU cores, as opposed to the 1 CPU core found in earlier AMD (and intel, VIA, cyrix etc) CPUs. Dual core CPUs have much better multitasking performance than traditional single core CPUs.
Yes it is. The new bulldozer series of processors go very ahead in the run against the old trinity series.
The i5-3570k offers much better single-core performance over the FX-8320 (Passmark 1,989 vs 1,402), and it comes with an integrated GPU, which the AMD processor lacks.In terms of overclocking, the AMD FX-8320 is unlocked, therefore allowing it to be overclocked to up to 4.83 GHz on water cooling and 4.64 GHZ on air.If you're looking for a processor that includes an inbuilt GPU and more revolutionary features, by all means, go for the Intel i5-3570k. But if you're dead-set on a processor that you can overclock, go for the AMD FX-8320.
Yes, an AMD fx 6300 fits into a ASUS m5a97 r2. For more information check out tomshardware.com/answers/id-1783753/amd-fx6300-work-motherboard-asus-m5a97.html
Front Side Bus (for older Intel CPUs). Hypertransport (for AMD) and CSI (for newer Intel CPUs)
As of 10/15/2012, the Intel's latest is the family of Ivy-Bridge i3/5/7 microprocessors. AMD's latest is the FX family. If you're looking for buying advice, go for Intel. If you want AMD, get a Phenom 2 x6. It uses less power and is faster than the 8-core FX processor in most benchmarks.
No. If you want to run dual processors, they need to both be the same speed, and either "MP" (multiprocessor) versions, or hacked 'normal' CPUs (there is a way of making normal CPUs report they are MP CPUs)
A good graphics card for an AMD HD 7750 motherboard with 8 GB of RAM would be a Diamond AMD Radeon HD 6570.
Gateway generally purchases their CPUs from either AMD or Intel.
