AMD updates Fusion APU details - 2011 AMD Notebook Platform ready to go | TechEye

AMD has announced a few more details of its forthcoming mobile A-Series microprocessors with integrated graphics, or APUs.

At the launch, AMD will have seven dual and quad-core SKUs, clocked from 1.5GHz to 2.1GHz, which can hit 2.6GHz in Turbo Core mode.

According to the 2011 AMD Notebook Platform page, which can be seen here the details are pretty much what we expected. All have UD3 and Direct X 11.

All are built on the Llano core, which is a die shrink of the K10 used in Athlon II and Phenom II.

They are made up of the A8-, A6- and A4-families. The A8-Series chips have four CPU cores, four MB of L2 cache, and Radeon HD 6620G graphics with 400 shader units and 444 MHz clock rate.

The A6 has slower integrated HD 6520G graphics with a 400 MHz clock rate and only 320 shaders.

The A4-Series has two CPU cores with 2MB L2 cache, and HD 6480G graphics with 240 shaders, clocked at 444 MHz.

All A-Series APUs have Turbo Core technology, and support up to DDR3-1333 memory. Some MX models go up to DDR3-1600.

The CPUs use socket FS1 form-factor with 35 Watt Thermal Design Power for "M" parts, or 45 Watt TDP for "MX" parts.
