All Turion Models | Hardware Secrets

AMD uses three different names for the dual-core version of Turion: Turion 64 X2 (models starting with "TL"), Turion X2 (models starting with "RM") and Turion X2 Ultra (models starting with "ZM"). Despite the name, they are all the same processor. The main differences between these CPUs and the original Turion 64 is the presence of two processing cores, of course, and the support for DDR2 memory modules under dual-channel configuration, meaning that the CPU can access the memory at 128-bit rate, doubling the memory maximum theoretical transfer rate (single-core Turion 64 models based on socket S1 also support DDR2 memories under dual-channel configuration).

While Turion 64 competes with Pentium M and Core Solo, Turion 64 X2 competes with Core Duo and Core 2 Duo.

Turion 64 X2 has the same features found on Turion 64 plus:

Dual-core technology
256 KB, 512 KB ou 1 MB L2 memory cache per core, depending on the model.
HyperTransport bus running at 800 MHz (3.2 GB/s) or 1,800 MHz (7.2 GB/s). These clocks may also be referred as “1,600 MHz" and "3,600 MHz", respectively.
Support for DDR2 memories and dual channel configuration.
Socket S1
65 nm or 90 nm manufacturing process

TDP stands for Thermal Design Power and indicates the CPU thermal dissipation, i.e. the CPU cooler must be capable of dissipating at least this amount of heat.
