AMD FX is a series of high-end AMD microprocessors for personal computers. According to AMD's website, the FX-series is the industry's first native 8-core desktop processor.^[1] The FX-series is based on the Bulldozer microarchitecture and its derivative Piledriver, which use a module design which contains two cores on one module.

Features

All AMD FX microprocessors are unlocked and overclockable.
Two Integers-Clusters (seen as logical cores from OS) in each Bulldozer "Core".
All models manufactured from 8 logical cores with simple OROCHI die production, in 938 pins µPGA package AM3+ socket.
4 Bulldozer cores within FX-8 series, 3 in FX-6 series, and 2 in FX-4 series.
All models support up to 4 DIMMs of DDR3 1866/2133 memory.
