AMD Sempron 2200+

The AMD Sempron 2200+ is a single-core, single-thread desktop processor with a 1500.00 MHz base clock and no boost clock. It belongs to the K7 architecture family under the Sempron (Thorton) generation, uses AMD Socket A, and was manufactured on a 130 nm process with 37 million transistors on an 80 mm² die. The FACT PACK lists no benchmark scores, no nearestRivals entries, and no memory or PCIe specifications, so the profile must be read from its structural fields: a 62 W TDP, 128 KB L1 cache, 256 KB L2 cache, false ECC support, a locked multiplier, and end-of-life production status.

Benchmark Performance

The benchmark record for this processor is empty. The `benchmarks` array contains no entries, and the average benchmark score is recorded as 0. Because of this, there are no measured scores to interpret and no exact percentage deltas to report against rival CPUs. The database field `percentileVsAllCpus` is 50, which would place it at the median of all CPUs in the database if read literally, but that positional value is not backed by any actual benchmark results in the FACT PACK.

The `nearestRivals` list is also empty. This means no rival names, no rival scores, and no `deltaPct` values are available for comparison. Without those fields, it is not possible to state that the Sempron 2200+ is faster or slower than any named competitor by any percentage. The only numeric benchmark-related facts are the 0 average score and the 50th percentile, and the 0 score is best understood as an artifact of the missing benchmark data rather than a measured performance result. The conclusion from the data is straightforward: no score-based competitive analysis can be produced from this FACT PACK.

Power and Thermals

The TDP is 62 W, which places the Sempron 2200+ in a modest power class for a desktop socket part. A 62 W thermal envelope does not require an exotic cooling solution; a capable air cooler is sufficient for this class of processor. The CPU is built on a 130 nm process with a die size of 80 mm² and a transistor count of 37 million, so the heat-generating area is small.

The FACT PACK does not include any temperature readings, cooler specifications, or measured power draw, so all thermal conclusions are drawn from the TDP field alone. There is no boost clock listed, which means the processor has no higher frequency state to transition into beyond its 1500.00 MHz base clock. The multiplier is also locked, so the official operating point is fixed from the perspective of the CPU multiplier. In practical terms, the data implies a low-to-moderate thermal design suitable for straightforward desktop cooling.

Platform and Compatibility

The processor uses AMD Socket A. Its architecture is K7, the codename is Thorton, and the generation field is “Sempron (Thorton).” The process node is 130 nm, and the die contains 37 million transistors on an 80 mm² footprint. The cache hierarchy is 128 KB of L1 cache and 256 KB of L2 cache; no L3 cache is listed.

The FACT PACK does not specify a memory type, memory bus, or memory bandwidth. ECC memory support is false. The PCIe field is also null, so no PCIe revision is available. Integrated graphics are described as “On certain motherboards (Chipset feature),” meaning the graphics capability is tied to the motherboard chipset rather than being a built-in processor feature. The multiplier is not unlocked, and the production status is end-of-life. The part number is SDC2200DUT3D.

For an upgrade path, the data only confirms the socket and the end-of-life status. Because no memory support or PCIe details are listed, a full platform compatibility map cannot be constructed from the FACT PACK. The socket is clear, but the surrounding platform features are mostly left unspecified.

How It Compares

The `nearestRivals` array is empty. There are no rival names, no rival scores, and no `deltaPct` values to quote in this section. Consequently, the Sempron 2200+ has no recorded comparison points in the data.

The only database-wide positioning field is `percentileVsAllCpus`, which is 50. That places the CPU at the median percentile if taken at face value. However, the average benchmark score is 0 and the benchmark array is empty, so the percentile is not supported by observed benchmark results. In the absence of any nearestRivals entries, no paragraph can be written about a specific competing processor. The data simply does not contain a comparison set.

Single-Thread vs Multi-Thread Behavior

The Sempron 2200+ has 1 core and 1 thread. This means there is no multi-threaded execution capability in the hardware. There is no multi-thread performance figure to separate from single-thread performance because the CPU can only handle one thread at a time.

The base clock is 1500.00 MHz, and no boost clock is listed, so all execution runs at that one operating frequency. For real workloads, this is a meaningful structural limit: software that relies on a single thread will use the one available hardware thread, while software that expects multiple threads will find only one. The cache layout is 128 KB of L1 and 256 KB of L2, with no L3 cache, and there is no second core or thread to share that cache.

Because the multiplier is locked, user frequency scaling is not part of the official configuration. The data does not include any benchmark scores to show how this single-thread behavior translates into application performance. The practical consequence is simple: the processor is a strict single-thread part.

Who Should Consider It

The market segment is Desktop, and the processor has exactly 1 core and 1 thread. That makes it appropriate for workloads that do not require parallel thread execution. Light office-style tasks that operate in a single thread may fit within the 1500.00 MHz base clock and the 256 KB L2 cache.

For gaming, the data provides no benchmark scores to quantify suitability. The integrated graphics are tied to certain motherboards as a chipset feature, so the graphics path is not a guaranteed part of the CPU package. For content creation, the 1-core/1-thread structure is a hard limit: multi-threaded creation workloads would find no additional hardware threads to use. The 0 average benchmark score and empty benchmark array provide no evidence of strong multi-threaded throughput.

The 50th percentile is the only database-wide rank available, but it is not supported by measured scores. End-of-life production status also means this is not a current production part. With a 62 W TDP, the thermal requirement is modest, and the Socket A platform is clearly identified, but missing memory and PCIe details mean the full system context cannot be determined from the FACT PACK. The Sempron 2200+ is therefore best considered for simple, single-threaded desktop use rather than demanding multi-threaded workloads.
