It's been a long time coming, but AMD is finally going to add to the tri-core line-up (which is nothing but Phenom II X4 with one core disabled). The new product in question is Phenom II X3 740 - running at 3.0 GHz, with a total of 1.5 MB L2 + 6MB L3 cache.

It is unknown whether this will be a Black Edition CPU like it's predecessor (the 2.8 GHz 720BE).
The 720BE has been a hot seller thanks to it's affordability (US$119), overclockability and if you are lucky - unlocking the disabled core to the BIOS.
It is expected to launch some time in September.
