Who hasn't heard about the following phrase? The Future is Fusion ! Unless you have been living under a rock for the last years, this AMD marketing slogan was pretty much everywhere. AMD wanted to create a platform that was mainly very affordable, where a dedicated graphics card was not a must, while being power efficient, especially for the mobile market and up to the task to satisfy our multimedia, digital desires/needs. One option already existed in the form of an integrated graphic chips solutions on the motherboard. However the latter had non-conforming performance for todays standards. This all lead to the creation of the APU, Accelerated Processing Unit. The first steps to make Fusion a reality. The FM1 socket Llano CPUs was AMD's first succesful try in this new market. As usual the competition caught up, so time for a new revision of the AMD APU. Hello world this is platform Virgo calling... Time to have a look at AMD's latest Trinity socket FM2 APU.

Less than two days ago, Benchmark Reviews received the latest and greatest APUs from AMD; the A10-5800K and the A8-5600K. They don't launch in the retail market for a couple of weeks, but we are bringing you the low down in a special preview of the newest Accelerated Processing Units about to become available. The Second Generation APUs follow along the same lines as last year's APU releases by AMD with some notable upgrades in both CPU and GPU performance. The new "Trinity" series of APUs also comes with a new chipset and socket that are surprisingly not backwards compatible with the first generation "Llano" series of APUs.

In addition to the ASRock Extreme6 we also have Intel's latest i7-970 CPU to test. So join us as we put some ultra-high end kit through its paces in real world testing which includes SATA3 and USB 3 performance, CrossFire Eyefinity and 3-Way SLI 3D Vision Surround gameplay in addition to our standard tests which include encoding and media playback.

AMD schickt mit „Trinity“ die zweite Generation der APUs ins Rennen. Erst einmal wird diese auf das Notebook-Segment fokussiert – wir sehen uns den A8-4500M genauer an.

Intel knows that most people will spring for the cheaper Lynnfield in most cases and enjoy a big upgrade for little money. It's hard to really point out anything wrong with this processor. It's cheap, its performance for the dollar is unrivaled in the industry and at last allows the consumer to upgrade above a socket 775 system without having to re-mortgage the house.

Ivy Bridge E is in many ways the same old same old we have seen from Intel over the last few launches. Ultimately we can chalk this up to a lack of competition from AMD, so what we get is a good processor that is only slightly better than the previous generation in terms of performance. Being an owner of an Intel 3960X myself I see no reason to upgrade from the previous generation, useless you are really concerned about the 20W difference in power consumption. From our experience most people that can afford a $1000 processor are not concerned about the power bill and with only marginal improvements on the performance front there is no reason to upgrade from Sandy Bridge E at this point.

Nehalem EP used the same D0 core as that found in the new 920 which left the top performing 965 processor on the older C0 revision. Rather than change the CPU to bring it up to date Intel are once again pushing the market forward with the release of the Core-i7 975 Extreme Edition and we will be putting it through its paces in a selection of mainly real world tests to establish how much of an improvement it is over the existing models in the range.

Bei gleichbleibender Thermal Design Power von 125 Watt bietet "Thuban" ganze sechs Rechenkerne - 50 Prozent mehr als beim Deneb. Hinzu kommt die dynamische Anpassung der Taktrate an die Prozessorauslastung in Form von Turbo CORE. Das alles schafft AMD bei gleichbleibender Fertigungsgröße in 45 nm - dem neuen E0-Stepping sei Dank. Denn dieses Stepping wird unter Verwendung eines Ultra-Low-K-Dielektrikums hergestellt, was für eine verringerte Leistungssaufnahme sorgt. Oder im aktuellen Fall für eine gleichbleibende Leistungsaufnahme bei 50 Prozent höherer Kernanzahl.

Heute wurde die AMD Llano Accelerated Processing Unit - kurz APU - für die Lynx Plattform vorgestellt und umfangreich getestet.

Seit unserem letzten Bericht im Sommer 2010 hat sich beim Prozessorangebot viel geändert. präsentierte im Januar dieses Jahres neue Prozessoren auf der „Sandy Bridge“-Architektur, die Core i-Serie der 2. Generation.Mit der Architekturänderung zog bei Intel auch eine neue Plattform Einzug. Diese beseitigte die Schwäche der alten 1156-Plattform bei der Anbindung des Chipsatzes, indem die ...
