AMD K8L Agena & Kuma Details
 

Core Enchancements:

128 Bit floating point:
Applies only to Agena & Kuma

New SSE4A instructions:
Advanced Bit manipulation
MWAIT & MONITOR instructions
Misaligned SSE Mode
Additional Features:
Power management state invariant time stamp counter (TSC)
increased number of TLB Page entries
1GB large paging support

IMC Enhancements

DDR2 Dimms in products variations:
Socket AM2+: Dual Channel unbuffered 1066 support
Socket 1207+ Dual Channel unbuffered 1066 support
Memory Controller enhancements
Write Burst & DRAM prefetching performance improovements
DRAM writes can be buffered in the memory controller before being opportunistically bursted into DRAM controler to improve DRAM interface efficiency
Read prefetcher detects stride paterns and issues prefetch requests based on confidence level
Channel Interleaving
