Released back in December 2007, the TL-68 model is a par of AMD's dual core processors' line, built on the 65nm manufacturing technology. The new central processing unit is meant to deliver increased performance rates for your mobile notebook systems.



The first dual-core 64 X2 processor was released back in August 2007 and could render clock speeds from 1700 MHz to 2200 MHz, depending on model selection. The new TL-68 model raised the upper level of the Turion 64 X2 line clock speed to a whooping 2400 MHz. That feature alone will certainly make your notebook perform better for gaming, multimedia or other demanding applications. You also have to take in consideration the fact that the TL-68 processor is built using the 65nm manufacturing technology, which is energy-efficient.



As far as portable systems go, one built with the new dual core AMD processor should offer a decent platform for most users, even those enthusiast gamers. Along with the 2400 MHz of computing power, the new CPU comes with some of AMD's technology features. EVP(Enhanced Virus Protection), HyperTransport technology, AMD PowerNow! technology are just a few of those features meant to leave the end users with a better experience where computing is concerned.



Several mobile system manufacturers have bundled this processor in their existent product lineup and is important to know that single Turion CPUs are hard to find. This means that you will have to let a system builder configure your portable computer. The HP Pavilion tx2000z Series Notebook, which is available at an approximate price tag of $1000 can be configured to run with the TL-68 processor.
