AMD is already intrducing the Duron and the Thunderbird. The Thunderbird will have 256K of full speed cache, but the new AMD Mustang will have 2Mb of full speed cache. AMD will also be introducing the Spitfire, set to run against the Celeron. In conclusion, AMD will also introduce the Sledghammer, which will be able to handle Tb of memory because of 32 bit compatiblilty.

The PIV (code named "Wimamette") will aim for the mid range of computers set with a 400Mhz bus and speeds of greater than 1.3Ghz. It will also be the first 32 bit cpu since the Pentium Pro. Another additon will be included to Intel. Named the Itanium, it will be the first Intel 64 bit processor. The Intanium will be for servers.
