  |  Slashdot // AMD's Triple-Core Phenom X3 Processor Launched MojoKid writes "AMD officially launched their triple-core processor offering today with the introduction of the Phenom X3 8750. When AMD first announced plans to introduce tri-core processors late last year, reaction to the news was mixed.
