Intel Sandy Bridge chip leaked in Acer, Gateway, Lenovo notebooks

In any case,the perf. difference will be huge between the two,no matter how you look at it(with or without enough BW). For most users that buy a laptop and still want to game occasionally without buying an expensive laptop with discrete GPU,Llano will be a better choice.And if they decide to buy a discrete card,they can choose one compatible with Llano's GPU for CFX.

Why are we talking desktop all the sudden?

edit: When we stay desktop, you might want to look at this:

It compares A HD5500 with GDDR3@800mhz and DDR2@400mhz (25,6gb/s vs 12,8gb/s) and a oced HD5500 with HD5570 specs.
As you can see this chips hunger for memory bandwidth, a chip with 320 SPs with same clocks is often faster then the same chip with 400 SPs just because the 320SPs chip has the better memory bandwidth.

I have no intention to make the integration of GPUs into the CPU look bad, but i am a gamer and a realist. People make it sound like this new approach will open them a new world of gaming experience, when in fact its just marketing bull. We are exactly there where we left off, IGP can and will run older games decent on low res and low details but if you up the details or the res your again in the sub 30 or een sub 20fps range, and there it doesn't matter if one IGP runs 9,6fps or 18,9fps, both are unplayable...
