Re: AMD Llano discussion

Ok guys tell me which deal will be sweeter. Upcoming llano based notebooks @ 40k or sandybridge notebooks with discrete gpu @ 38k?????

Lenovo has recently launched the Z570 notebook @ 38k

It has i3 2310m, 4gigs ram ddr3, 640gb hdd, Nvidia geforce 525m 1gb with a 6cell battery as default. The non gpu model is 29k.

Now tell me if the upcoming llano can beat this?

Re: AMD Llano discussion

Can't really comment on an unreleased product. But I expect Llano to have better battery life than that.

Re: AMD Llano discussion

^^Yes, I agree too

By the way,I personally feel, that for the time being, AMD is using Llano as a backup, in case Bulldozer is not received too well by consumers. Even though that possibility seems remote, AMD probably does not want to take chances.

The following facts reinforce my belief:

1. Llano is based on the older Stars microarchitecture(Although AMD could have easily manufactured it using Bulldozer microarchitecture, but didnt!)
So if bulldozer flops, AMD can still use its older(but tried and tested) microarch, loaded with great graphics to woo consumers.

2.Llano is to be manufactured using bulldozer from 2012, thus replacing Stars.
AMD probably wants feedback from consumers before completely transforming its entire product line to Bulldozer.
So Llano is helping out AMD in this case too!


What do you say guys?

AMD said:
Today’s news is strong enough on its own that simple works in this case. The product itself is the headline: Production units of AMD’s 32 nanometer quad-core “Llano” A-Series Accelerated Processor Units (APU) with discrete-level graphics are now shipping.

"Llano" APU is Shipping | Fusion

Re: AMD Llano discussion

Llano if you are low on budget. Bulldozer if you are high on budget.

Re: AMD Llano discussion

Athlon II X4 is a very good processor and there is no point to regret your decision. Llano is not yet launched and not at all tested. Even if it will be launched in very near future, the pricing in India will not be cheaper.
So enjoy.

Re: AMD Llano discussion

yah ok! but the electricity bill has increased by 0.3k, that may be because i play games for 3 continuous hours. or may be because of psu efficiency. going to put corsair vx450 along with dell st2220l maybe this month.

Re: AMD Llano discussion

^^ cause of local PSU. add a highend GPU & it'll blow away those entry level Llano parts.

Re: AMD Llano discussion

^^ definitely Llano. mainly cause of new architecture & IGP thats as fast as entrylevel card. but if you pair a fast GPU with both of these, Phenom II X4 will loose but maybe by a small margin. so it doesn't makes a last gen processor a bad buy which is brought 3-5months ago (at time of launching of Llano).
