AMD Benchmarks Zacate APU, 2x Faster GPU Performance than Core i5

[Nintendork]

I dont get this whole 3d gaming on igp thing, Dont get me wrong, AMD kills Intel in every metric with all gpu performance but when it comes to igp gaming is 16fps and 1 fps not the same i.e uplayable?

That's on high. On medium Batman moves arround 25-30fps. Any modern game can be played around that number in low/low-medium (not all dudes want high settings with 8xAA, just enjoy gaming or doing it in their beds). And there's also the mmo's.

For what you get there's nothing bad. Same can be said for people that just a buy a pc and not want a dedicated gpu because they're not hardcore gamer, play eventually or just want to save money.

A lot of older games are better than the now scriptedashell-hollywood-like games.


And you forget Llano, the igp of that chip can move Crysis in high and any modern game with decent fps (HD5550/9600GSO~)
