Advanced Micro Devices, the inventor of x86-64 also known as AMD64 technology, that is about a month away from the first ever 64-bit chip designed for consumer desktop computers today showcased the new logotypes of the Athlon 64 and Opteron processors.
“The AMD64 logo enables end users to make a visual connection between AMD64 processors and vendor-validated software and peripherals,” said Rich Heye, vice president and general manager of AMD's Microprocessor Business Unit. “It links the new AMD64 logo to AMD’s well recognized product logos and helps communicate the compatibility of today’s and tomorrow’s computer products with AMD64 technology.”

The new logotypes are intended to promote not only “Athlon 64” or “Opteron” brand-names, but to popularize the whole AMD64 architecture and platform.
