A small assortment of hybrid processors Carrizo was introduced by AMD earlier this month, but since they are primarily designed for laptops, they were not subjected to active discussion , A few weeks ago there was a record that tells about the benefits of Carrizo processors compared to its predecessors. AMD revealed that within the existing 28-nm process technology was able to place in the same area 29% more transistors (3.1 bln.) And computational core architecture Excavator occupy 23% less space, which allows the chip area comparable processor place additional functional blocks: increase the area of graphics . Optimized power system cores of the processor and graphics, allow to reach 20- or even 30-percent energy savings compared with Kaveri.
AMD site already has a section dedicated to hybrid processors of the sixth generation, and a detailed link allows us to understand that they will be used in laptops and tablets.
The advanced Carrizo video processor allow to view videos without buffering . Carrizo processors can simultaneously transcode up to nine streams 1080p video in real time, outperforms Kaveri three and a half times.
Notebooks based on Carrizo should go on sale before the end of six months. Related Products :
