KVM and Athlon single-core CPUs



Is anybody here running KVM on a single-core Athlon CPU, in particular
on a newer 45W LE-series processor like the Athlon LE-1640?

My understanding is that all multicore AMD CPUs (X2, X3 or X4) support
KVM, but I'm not too sure with single-core CPUs, inasmuch as my
current 1800MHz Sempron (which I'm planning to upgrade RSN) doesn't
support it.

Information on the web appear to contradict each other, with Wikipedia
stating that all socket AM2 Athlons support AMD-V while most online
sellers conspicuously fail to list "AMD-V" or "virtualization" in the
box for supported features (with Newegg even putting a "No" in the row
for "Virtualization Technology Support").
