HP OFFERING NEW AMD LINE-UP

摘要

The news for AMD aficionados out there is a fresh line-up of laptops from HP (www.hp.com) utilizing the A-series (Llano) accelerated processing units which combine CPU cores and discrete graphics on a single silicon die, much like Intel's Sandy Bridge chips. Space doesn't allow a detailed description of all 11 models in the series, but the three G-series Pavilion models (starting at $450) are budget machines, whereas the three Pavilion DVs are designed for entertainment and have enhanced graphics capabilities. The ProBook machines, starting at $519, are business-level laptops featuring AMD VISION Pro technology and are geared to run major multimedia applications. Browser performance is enhanced by offloading Flash video to be handled by the graphics processor instead of the CPU.
