AMD64 logo program launched for easy identification

AMD launched a logo program for AMD64 to help consumers and IT decision-makers identify its hardware and software products. These devices are a new class of computing technology that can run current and next-generation software on the same processor at the same time. 

“This program allows leading software and hardware developers to signify their support for native 32- and 64-bit computing on the AMD64 platform,” says Rich Heye, VP and GM, AMD Microprocessor Business Unit. “The AMD64 logo indicates that end-users can continue using their software and hardware today, and migrate to next-generation technology at their own pace,” adds he.

AMD64 directly follows the path of the industry-standard x86 architecture. The Opteron processor for servers and workstations and the Athlon 64 processor for desktop and mobile PCs, are the first AMD64 processors. The company designed these processors to maintain compatibility with 32-bit solutions and to enable a transition to a 64-bit computing.
