The AMD Athlon II X2 220 is a dual-core processor designed for mainstream computing tasks, offering reliable performance for everyday use. With a clock speed of 2.8 GHz, it provides sufficient power for multitasking, web browsing, and basic productivity applications. The processor features two cores, each with 512 KB of L2 cache, which helps improve performance by reducing the time needed to access frequently used data. It is built on a 45 nm SOI CMOS process and supports both 32-bit and 64-bit operating modes, making it compatible with a wide range of software and systems. The AMD PowerNow! Technology (also known as Cool'n'Quiet) allows the processor to dynamically adjust its voltage and clock speed based on workload, helping to reduce power consumption and heat output when the system is idle or under light load.

This CPU is designed for use with motherboards that have an AM3 socket, which was commonly used in AMD's desktop platforms during the late 2000s and early 2010s. It supports HyperTransport Technology, which enhances communication between the CPU and other components on the motherboard. The processor has a thermal design power (TDP) of 65 watts, which means it requires adequate cooling to operate efficiently and safely. The maximum operating temperature is specified at 45°C, ensuring that the CPU remains within safe thermal limits under normal conditions.

The AMD Athlon II X2 220 is an upgrade option for systems that require improved performance without the need for a complete hardware overhaul. It is ideal for users who want to enhance their computing experience without investing in a more expensive processor. Installation is straightforward, requiring only a compatible motherboard, a heat sink and fan, and proper power supply.
