[Computex 2010]AMD to show Fusion tomorrow

[tajoh111]

I haven't seen anything from AMD deliver competitive performance in the low power segment. I haven't seen a AMD based laptop win a editor choice or even a recommendation from any website.

It might be a game changer performance wise, but AMD has an aweful stigma following it when it comes to laptops and unlike its desktops chips, its well deserved. Unless they market their chips properly(i.e The AMD vision program stinks), even if it is the greatest chip in the world, it won't do them that much.

One stigma AMD will need to fight too is the idea that a gaming laptop cannot be using an integrated chip.

That is my point.

My mother, neighbor or "Average Joe" never dead-heads their CPU's. But nearly every one of them stresses their graphic subsystem.

For 90% of the people on the planet, any $99 quad core is powerful enough for anything they could ever hope to do. Today, CPU power is basically a moot point for those people.

Unless your mother is a gamer, I can't see your mom stressing her graphics chip. Unless its a Atom that needs a graphics chip to accelerate HD video, which is still pretty rare, a powerful GPU is useless.

The general public will always want more powerful CPUs over GPU's because time is money. Additionally have both a powerful gpu and cpu takes a hit on battery life.
