AMD says its quad-core notebook products are priced far lower in China than Intel

May 28 News, AMD recently released the Vision 2010 notebook platform. The release of AMD notebook platform covers the mainstream and ultra-thin two major areas, and the first time in the notebook computer platform introduced three cores and four of nuclear processors.　　AMD executives emphasise that AMD has an advantage over its competitors in selectivity and price. AMD emphasizes the price-performance advantage of this new platform, the platform for the mainstream notebook is code-named "Danube" (Danube), the platform for lightweight notebooks code-named "Nile" (Nile). The new platform has been supported by many OEM vendors, and the world will be listing up to 135 notebooks based on AMD's new platform.　　At present, Acer and Lenovo's new platform for the use of AMD notebook has been listed in the country. "Danube" (Danube), continuing the AMD's "3 A" platform configuration, using AMD multi-core processors: AMD Yi Long II dual-core/three-core/four-core processor, AMD Rui Long II dual-core processors and AMD Fast Dragon II dual-core processors. The ATI adroit Radeon HD5400, HD5600, HD5700 series are also supported by DX11, and paired with the AMD rs880m+sb820 chipset.　　AMD said that the four core of the Danube platform's thermal design power consumption of only 25W, compared to the "Tigris" platform launched last year, battery endurance increased more than 1.5 hours. The third-generation ultra-light notebook platform code-named "Nile" (Nile) still uses ultra-low power configuration, using a new generation of AMD ultra-low power dual-core processors.　　In power control, from 18W down to 12W. For Intel's 32 NM technology, AMD global product Marketing Director Bob Grim said AMD will also launch the 32 nm technology. But he also stressed that mainstream consumers are not buying nano-scale, but more concerned about experience and price. Asked about the difference between AMD's four nuclear products and rival quad-core products. "Our four cores can be either single or integrated, but competitors can only be paired with each other," said Bob. In addition, we have a different choice of heat dissipation design, there are 25, 35, 45 watts, we have more options for OEMs, you can choose to compare the traditional notebook design, you can choose the more ultra-thin design. "Bob Grim highlighted AMD's Price/performance advantages:" Our four nuclear price is more mainstream, our four core is 5999 yuan, compared to their competitors, a lower two to 3,000 of the renminbi. "The focus is still on the mainstream and ultra-thin when asked whether the commercial and consumer markets are focused, Bob Grim said:" In comparison, consumer use is more than commercial. "AMD will focus on both consumers and business, and will make great efforts in two areas." Bob Grim says, there are no vision products designed for Tablet PCs. "We need to see where the user's specific needs are on the tablet or on other new products," he said. Tang Zhide stressed that AMD's focus is still on the notebook market. "We have a large number of OEM partners, and at the same time cooperate with us." The focus of short-term AMD should be the mainstream and ultra thin market.　　AMD Global vice President Pan Xiaoming revealed that now AMD's vision has a very good timing, now based on AMD brand new notebook platform, is from these major OEM manufacturers, in China now can have a platform of about 50. Referring to netbooks, Tang Zhide said: "We think that the atom of the netbook, its volume no longer increase, mainly its performance problems." Tang Zhide said AMD will push the ultra thin products. "You see our ultra-thin products have such a positioning, actually close to the price of netbooks, but the performance is much higher than today's netbook, especially in HD, its visual experience, it does meet a lot of users."
