AMD Athlon X2 QL-62

The AMD Athlon X2 QL-62 is a mobile processor built on AMD's K10 architecture and codenamed Griffin. The process node is 65 nm, the socket is AMD Socket S1, and the market segment is Mobile. The part carries 2 cores and 2 threads, a base clock of 2000.00 MHz, no listed boost clock, and a TDP of 25 W. The database entry lists an empty benchmark array, an average benchmark score of 0, and a percentileVsAllCpus value of 50; the nearestRivals list is also empty. The series field is not populated. These fields make the QL-62 a case where platform and architectural data exist, but measured scores and rival comparison values do not.

Who Should Consider It

Workload recommendations for the QL-62 cannot be tied to measured scores, because the benchmark array for this processor is empty. The only workload-relevant facts are the architecture, core/thread count, clock, graphics feature, socket, and production status. For gaming, the database records no framerate or gaming score. The processor has 2 threads, a 2000.00 MHz base clock, and integrated graphics described as a chipset feature on certain motherboards; as a result, the data supports a mobile-office portrait more readily than a demanding gaming one. For content creation, the absence of any creation benchmark scores means the QL-62 has no verified position in rendering, encoding, or compilation. The 2-core, 2-thread arrangement and the lack of a boost clock are the only execution-resource facts available, and they indicate a processor with limited parallel capacity. For office and general productivity, the mobile segment, 25 W TDP, dual-channel memory bus, and end-of-life production status point to a light portable system. The dual-channel memory bus is the only memory path detail, and it does not by itself establish a workload class. Because the market segment is Mobile, desktop builders are not the target audience. The Socket S1 interface and the end-of-life status mean the QL-62 is not a current desktop solution. Potential users with an existing Socket S1 laptop platform are the most plausible audience; new-platform builders have no compatibility evidence in this record.

Power and Thermals

The thermal profile of the QL-62 is defined by a 25 W TDP. This is a low-power design point in the mobile market segment, and it implies a cooling solution in the class of small laptop coolers rather than a large desktop tower cooler. The 65 nm process node is the only manufacturing data in the entry; no foundry, transistor count, or die size is recorded, so process density cannot be assessed. The absence of a boost clock is also important for thermals: 2000.00 MHz is the highest listed operating frequency, so the thermal envelope is tied to a single continuous clock rate. The multiplier is not unlocked, which means the CPU does not offer an open-ended frequency adjustment path. The locked multiplier and the end-of-life status indicate that the platform is not designed for ongoing tuning. ECC memory support is false, and no memory bandwidth value is listed, so memory-related thermal behavior cannot be quantified. The data shows a clear thermal identity: a 25 W mobile processor built for restrained power consumption.

Benchmark Performance

The benchmark results for the QL-62 are absent from the database. The benchmarks array contains no entries, and the avgBenchmarkScore field is 0. Because there are no scores, there are no exact percentage deltas to report against rival processors. The nearestRivals array is empty, meaning no rival name, score, or deltaPct value is recorded for a head-to-head comparison. The only numerical performance-position field is percentileVsAllCpus, which is 50. In a database-wide ranking, a value of 50 places the QL-62 at the midpoint of all CPUs. However, this percentile sits alongside an average score of 0 and an empty benchmark list, so it should be read as a positional field rather than as evidence of measured performance. The percentile value of 50 is the only recorded numerical position; it cannot be converted into a rate, time, or score. No workload-specific benchmark category is represented in the empty benchmarks array. The data cannot support percentage claims, because the underlying values needed to compute deltas are missing. Benchmark performance analysis for this part is therefore a record of missing measurements: no average, no workload scores, and no rival comparisons.

How It Compares

Because the nearestRivals field is empty, the QL-62 has no comparative entries in the database. In a populated record, this field would list rival processor names, their scores, and deltaPct values, but none of those are present for this part. The only cross-CPU reference is the percentileVsAllCpus value of 50. That value is a global position, not a rival ranking; it does not identify a competitor, a margin, or a performance order. No paragraph can be written for a specific rival, because no specific rival exists in the record. The database may contain entries for other processors, but this CPU's record is not connected to them through nearestRivals. Therefore, any comparison would require external data, which this entry does not provide. The absence of rival data is consistent with the absence of benchmark data: the QL-62 is cataloged with platform information, but its relational performance profile is unpopulated. The comparison section must conclude that this processor has no stated position versus any named competitor in this database.

Platform and Compatibility

The platform foundation of the QL-62 is AMD Socket S1. The architecture is K10, and the codename is Griffin; the generation string is Athlon X2 (Griffin). The part number AMQL62DAM22GG identifies the SKU. The processor has 2 cores and 2 threads, 256 KB of L1 cache, and 1 MB of L2 cache. No L3 cache is recorded, and no vCache3d is listed. Memory support is not specified as a list, but the memory bus is dual-channel. No memory bandwidth value is listed, and memory support details such as supported DIMM types are absent from the entry. ECC memory support is false. Integrated graphics are described as on certain motherboards as a chipset feature; this indicates that the processor does not guarantee an integrated GPU of its own, and display output depends on the motherboard chipset. PCIe support is not listed, so no PCIe connectivity can be stated. The market segment is Mobile, and the production status is End-of-life. The release date is 2008-08-31. The multiplier is not unlocked. Foundry information is not recorded. This platform profile implies a closed upgrade landscape: the socket is S1, the product is end-of-life, and the database lists no other socket compatibility. Any CPU upgrade would have to stay within the Socket S1 platform. A move to a newer architecture or socket is outside the information recorded for this part, and the absence of PCIe data means expansion capability cannot be assessed from the entry.
