MD Brings Trinity APUs with More Speed and Efficiency | InfoZonePK

AMD just unveiled its second generation lineup of APUs. The replacement for the current Llano series Acceleration Processing Units is aimed at people seeking budget PCs and notebooks, which bears the name Trinity and boasts better efficiency and speed.

in fact, the Trinity packs double the performance per watt of Lliano, which is quite an impressive achievement. Therefore AMD’s new APU offering should impose an interesting threat to Intel’s Ivy Bridge in ultra-thin notebooks and economy PC builds.

AMD’s APU featuring up to four Piledrive CPU cores at their hearts, the Trinity APUs also pack a dual channel DDR3 memory controller, an AMD HD Media Accelerator and an unified northbridge for improved power efficiency. The graphics power comes from Radeon HD graphics, which AMD claim provides up to 56 percent better performance than the previous Radeon, which was to be found in the Lliano series. Moreover, the CPU gains estimated to abut 28%.
