Somewhere next month, likely Computex time, AMD is going to introduce a new range of AMD Athlon II and Phenom II processors. A more high-end targeted series and a new series energy friendly processors. The E series will have four new Phenom II models of which two quad-cores and two dual-core processors. All processors will have a 65 Watt TDP.
Next to that four new Athlon II processors will be released, again two with four and two with dual-cores. The biog difference with Phenom II will be the lack of L3 cache and a lower TDP at 45 Watt.
These are the "E" processors, energy friendly.

There will be a new quad core (925) at 2.8 GHz with a 95W TDP as well.
The ones who can live with 'only' two cores .. this might be interesting, two dual-core Phenoms at 3,1 and 3,2 GHz respectively. Finally based on new architecture and a lovely high clock frequency.
