The Sandy Bridge Preview (Anand)

Well Ontario's GPU (on paper) should keep up with even a 2c SB GPU.

..80 SP? 5450 with 80 SPs can't beat 1C SB GPU, let alone 2C model which should be some 85-100 % faster. I'd guess, if one can compare like this, that Intels 1C is equivalent to approx 80-100 SP, based on these early numbers. So 2C model could almost touch 240 SP Llano.

However, I'm sure ATI engineers know their stuff better than Intel engineers, they have a slight advantage there, but they also have disadvantages like mfg process.

You're right, sorry. 80SP indeed would be around SB 1C performance. not sure what I was thinking.

As informal said though ontario is a part aimed at very low power notebook/netbooks, so an 80SP part will still be quite decent
