One correction, AMD A75 & A68 chipsets support both Llano and Trinity. And A85X chipset is apparently ready:-

Trinity A85X chipset ready

AMD has been shipping A85X FCH since mid-Q1 2012 and it should launch some motherboards based on A85X together with Trinity CPUs in Q2 2012.

It comes with 8 SATA 6Gb/s ports as well as 4 USB 3.0, 10 USB 2.0 and two USB 1.1 ports if anyone still needs that. It also has RAID 0/1/5 and 10 support and it does support Crossfire. It has a TDP of 7.8W and ships in FCBGA 656 packaging.

Also dual-core Trinity supposed to come in Q3 2012:-

Dual core Trinity in Q3 2012 - 02 65W SKUs

AMD plans to introduce the faster and unlocked A6 5400K, a dual-core Trinity with HD7560D DirectX 11 graphics. We don’t know the clock speed but the new CPU supports socket FM2 and DDR3 1866 memory.

The second SKU, the slower of two is A4 5300 and this one has HD 7580D graphics that at least sounds a bit faster than the 7560D on the A6 5400K. Both CPUs are 65W parts and both are obviously meant for desktop computers.

AMD still keeps their clocks quiet but we can tell you that slowest of quad core Trinity desktop parts the A8 5500 runs at 3.2GHz and with AMD turbo implementation can reach even 3.6 GHz.

Depends on what you are trying to do your system.

For gaming you are better off with a dedicated GPU/CPU combo.

Some updates from Fudzilla:-

The most notable new processor is the A10 5800K that went out of the production sample phase in early February and it went into production in early March. A10 5700 was in production sample phase in mid-February and it entered production in mid March. A8 5600K is in production since early March as well, while the A8 5500 is in production as of mid of last month.

A6 5400K and A4 5300 should enter production ready sample phase in early April and move to full scale production in April 2012. The current schedule is that A10 5800K, A10 5700, A8 5600K, A8 5500 start shipping in Q3 2012 while the last two A6 5400K and A4 5300 start shipping in Q4 2012.

so the two APUs may be released on 15th may - you will get to see some benchmarks/performance tests etc. but shipping to the retailers ( read market availability ) will only start from Q3 2012 but some OEM PC manufactures will get it it a lot earlier if they have some kind of contract with AMD.

Meh, the 100W flagship A10 should have 4GHz base clock and 1GHz base GPU clock. Do it AMD. We know you can (or make a 125W version if you please!)

Wait for 5900K or something like that. ;)
