    How many consumers are doing much more than streaming HD video on their laptops anyway? How many are utilizing GPGPU or playing games? A minority...
    A simple 160 shader iGPU @ 400 MHz can cover the majority and lower idle AND load consumption very considerably.

    I like APUs, don't get me wrong...and I like the way Trinity is coming along...but CPU performance is a little disappointing when compared to 2 core intel solutions with SMT.

    Because I don't play games, I can't wait to see the 18w Trinity lineup.

    I can't wait to see how they overclock too though, to be honest
