<b>Los Angeles – E3 – June 11, 2013 – </b>AMD
(NYSE: AMD) today unveiled its most powerful member of the legendary AMD FX family of CPUs,
the world’s first commercially available 5 GHz CPU processor, the AMD FX-9590. These
8-core CPUs deliver new levels of gaming and multimedia performance for desktop
enthusiasts. AMD FX-9000 Series CPUs will be available initially in PCs through
system integrators.&nbsp;

”At E3 this week, AMD
demonstrated why it is at the core of gaming,” said Bernd Lienhard, corporate vice president and general manager,
Client Products Division at AMD. ”The new FX 5 GHz
processor is an emphatic performance statement to the most demanding gamers
seeking ultra-high resolution experiences including AMD Eyefinity technology.
This is another proud innovation for AMD in delivering the world’s first

said Wallace Santos, CEO and founder of MAINGEAR. ”In unveiling the world’s first
5 GHz 8-core CPU, AMD continues to lead the way in innovation while providing
our customers with a best-in-class experience. We are thrilled to be part of
this exciting launch.” The new 5 GHz FX-9590 and 4.7 GHz FX-9370 feature the

for enthusiasts to enjoy higher CPU speeds and related performance gains[1].
Additionally, these processors feature AMD Turbo Core 3.0 technology to
dynamically optimize performance across CPU cores and enable maximum computing

break the 1 GHz barrier in May of 2000
and continues to set the standard in technology innovation including the first Windows compatible 64-bit PC processor
and <a href="http://www.amd.com/us/press-releases/Pages/Press_Release_89872.aspx">the first native dual-core and
