Cyrix将用颇具进攻性的x86系列挑战AMD【本刊讯】为了与AMD公司争夺继Intel之后的亚军地位,Cyrix公司将在明年推出一系列具有挑战意义的x86微处理器。目前,Cyrix和AMD的一个主要争夺点是其Pen-tium级x86微处理器的设计。对Cyrix有利的一点是,许多分析家认为Cyrix的Ml比AMD的K5在设计上略胜一筹。Cyrix与BM的合作更使Cyrix在某些方面颇具优势,因为目前IBM微电子公司已经开始了(Cyrix)100MHz DX4和Pentium级芯片的生产,而AMD还在忙着扩大自己的生产能力。在设计方面,Cyrix也正在试图超过AMD。Cyrix正在不断扩充其新型486微处理器系列,其中包括66MHz的DX2。该产品比AMD的66MHz 486具有更
Cyrix to Challenge AMD with Offensive x86 Family AMD In a bid to compete with AMD for second place after Intel, Cyrix will introduce a series of challenging x86 microprocessors next year. At the moment, one of Cyrix’s key contenders for AMD is the design of its Pentium III-class x86 microprocessor. The good thing about Cyrix is that many analysts think Cyrix’s Ml is slightly better designed than AMD’s K5. The combination of Cyrix and BM has given Cyrix an edge in some areas, as IBM Microelectronics has now begun production of Cyrix’s 100MHz DX4 and Pentium-class chips, and AMD is busy expanding its production capacity. In the design, Cyrix is also trying to surpass AMD. Cyrix is expanding its new 486 microprocessor family, including 66MHz DX2. The product has more than AMD’s 66MHz 486
