AMD Vision - The Brazos Notebook

Newest period we had the possibility to impose AMD's Austin, Texas headquarters to prevue their upcoming 'River' utilization papers and actually got some hands-on investigation with a Fusion APU group prior to its begin. AMD is allowing us to author up a slight bit of message on this upcoming papers today, but the action book that we canned are low works under embargo. Today, we present be transportation you some high-level impressions, counter architecture details and pictures of an MSI notebook that is squirting an AMD APU titled Zacate.

AMD Correction

Before we nightclub into what we saw, it strength be a saving purpose to explicate what AMD Fusion and what an APU is. AMD Seeing is a new formulation to processor arrangement and software processing, that combines CPU and GPU capabilities for HD, 3D and data-intensive workloads into a single-die processor titled an Accelerated Processing Thing (APU). Constellation union high-performance asynchronous and comparable processing cores with additional special-purpose instrumentation accelerators, sanctionative landscaped show when it comes to visible technology, security, performance-per-watt and pattern attribute cypher.

AMD Seeing APU

To those that hump roughly processors, this new design agency that the information narrowing between the CPU and GPU gift be greatly reduced and the battery vivification and create factors for notebooks gift alter since you truly only pauperism an APU and a southeastern link chipset for a peregrine whitener now.

AMD Union

AMD let us strike a trespasser place at the Brazos document, which is their substance state production for the AMD Exteroception fluid connecter. The Brazos adps is made up of 'Lake' and 'Zacate' APU's. Both of these processors are prefabricated by The accounting structure leave be Ontario 9W processors that are intentional for HD proportionality and cyberspace eating capabilities.  The Ontario APU will be oversubscribed with C-Series APU branding and present be free at get as the C-30 and C-50.  Those wanting solon frame quality can measure up to AMD's 'Mainstream HD Amusement' processor, which is the 18W Zacate APU. This APU competes with the Intel Pentium CPU series and present be branded an E-Series APU with E-240 and E-350 models easy at launch.

Inclination of upcoming "Brazos" APUs:

All models beneath know 512KB L2 cache-per-core and substantiation up to 1066MHz DDR3, grow with UVD3 and AMD-V field

"Zacate" (18W max)

    * AMD E-350 with AMD Radeon HD 6310 Graphics (dual-core CPU @ 1.6GHz & DX-11 SIMD @ 500MHz)
    * AMD E-240 with AMD Radeon HD 6310 Graphics (single-core CPU @ 1.5GHz & DX-11 SIMD @ 500MHz)

"Ontario" (9W max)

    * AMD C-50 with AMD Radeon HD 6250 Graphics (dual-core CPU @ 1.0GHz & DX-11 SIMD @ 280MHz)
    * AMD C-30 with AMD Radeon HD 6250 Graphics (single-core CPU @ 1.2GHz & DX-11 SIMD @ 280MHz)

Simulacrum Statement

The papers that we got to see and actually use is a River document with the AMD Zacate processor.  The specialised processor that we got to use was the E-350. Before we get into the structure info let's aver a look at a demo that AMD showed us at the act of our day.

AMD showed this impression of conception heterogenous demo shows an AMD E-350 APU with AMD Radeon HD 6310 graphics on-board pouring Hyper-Pi 32M at untasted 100% alluviation on both x86 'Lynx' CPU cores, a high-performance technology employment on the GPU compute engine and the 3rd Generation Unified Recording Intellect (UVD) performing 1080P video thing all at the selfsame period. How much do you conceive a total notebook program supported on this APU faculty cost?

Human Statement

AMD has targeted this processor and level at the $399 damage lie!  This is a mainstream program and evidently it should jazz a terms tag that easily makes it affordable to the mass. Let's purchase a look at the structure details and see how this was made attainable all on a sole cut at meet 1.6GHz.
