All they have done with the black edtion is bumped the multiplier up a notch so the memory is actually set to 400mhz Ratted (800mhz)

In the AMD 64 x2 6000+ it had an odd multiplier (15X)
so the ram speed was actually 375mhz (if you had pc26400 ram insalled.)

I can overclock my 6000+ easly to fix this problem.

Review by: Steelcity1 on tigerdirect.com

The only noticeable diff at first that will catch your eye is the price and how it's 110 dollars more then the Athlon 64 X2 6000+ which is only 200mhz faster then the Athlon 64 X2 6000+. Dig a little deeper and you will notice that the Multiplier on the Athlon 64 X2 6400+ is unlocked unlike the Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Multiplier. Now the 110 dollars more price tag starts to become more interesting, because instead of being limited to 3.3ghz like with the Athlon X2 64 6000+ with the locked Multiplier, you can now be able to reach clock speeds of upwards to 3.7ghz stable on the Athlon 64 X2 6400+. It may sound crazy but people that have bought these processors say that they are able to do it with just a little voltage increase and a decent air cooled system. Now the question is, is it still worth the extra 110 dollars over the Athlon 64 X2 6000+? It does yield a 28% performance advantage over an overclocked Athlon 64 X2 6000+ at 3.3ghz, but even with that said I’d have to say no.]]>Sep 4th 2007 3:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/
I would agree with you thought its still not worth the extra money seen as you chould prob get intel chip which is probarly around the same speed and you could overclock it more. I brought my AMD 64 x2 6000+ before the black edtion was released if the price was cheaper and i knew that it had an unlocked muiltplyer then i probarly would have brought it.]]>Sep 4th 2007 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/
I have used the Cuo Duos and that processor sucks ass so bad I can't believe that people are stupid enough to buy into it's actually a good processor, I mean damn you have to be a 100% TARD to believe it.

AMD has and always will OWN the gaming because that is what it was designed for to begin with. And people are asking will it run their games......HAHAA my god no one here knows what the hell they are talking about. Consider yourself educated now.

As for the 6400+ it rules and even out performs AMD FX-72 processors, believe it.]]>Sep 14th 2007 3:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/Sep 30th 2007 6:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/Oct 2nd 2007 2:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/Sep 30th 2007 4:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/Sep 30th 2007 6:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/Oct 2nd 2007 10:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/20/amd-intros-athlon-64-x2-6400-black-edition/Oct 13th 2007 8:47PM
