AMD Trinity APU internal benchmark slides surface

AMD's upcoming 'Trinity' APU is expected to swing into production as early as January 2012 and arrive in actual products somewhere around late Q1 and early Q2. Although details are…

What a surprise...

Good to see that AMD's Department of Spin has been largely unaffected by the employee layoffs.

A little hard to reconcile these supposed performance leaps when even staunch AMD cheerleaders are reporting that Apple have decided to boot AMD for Intel+Nvidia. I'd have to assume that Apple must be privy to the next generation of 32/28/22nm hardware to make that decision...both relative performance and availability

I remember that DBZ.......you certainly called it. I guess fusion IS the future for AMD, if they are going to have one at all.

A15 vs APU vs ivybridge for windows 8 in 2012
Apu powerful gpu
Ivybridge powerful cpu
Arm's A15 energy efficient at way less power usage and way cheaper!

All 3 will be dx11 compatible

2012 can't wait

Might be a little optimistic there champ

Within reason.
1. The CPU side needs to step it up if Trinity is going to make a move into "all-purpose" computing
2. I don't think it's all plain sailing for Trinity. The recent articles stating that AMD's designs built for GloFo's 28nm have been trashed, and they are starting over with TSMC - different implementation means a ground up re-design.
I'm not sure if firing Trinity's chief architect represents forward progress either:

Assuredly....and of course having all the major OEM's on board now makes IB a success before it even enters the channel

Cortex-A15 isn't likely to be a player until 2013.The A15 has only just taped out,

Cortex-A15 has no graphics capability, and needs to be paired with a GPU such as Mali T-604

Single-core CPU performance is all I care about.
