AMD Fusion APU combines a chip, smaller than pieces of coin denominations of Rp 50, technology, multi-core CPU (x86), graphics engine with DirectX 11 capability, high-definition video acceleration blocks, and the buses that deliver high-speed data between a variety of cores in a processor. With a number of these capabilities, computer users will be pampered and satisfied by the speed of performance and image quality such as film, video, games, and graphics are presented on a computer screen.
Globally, the AMD Fusion APU has been launched in Las Vegas, USA, earlier this month. Products were born after more than four years since AMD bought ATI worth 5.4 billion U.S. dollars. Shortly after the two companies merged, dicanang project that will unite the functions of the CPU and GPU on a single chip hybrid. After what seems like nearly endless delays, a semiconductor design firm was finally launched his new product at a celebration of the Consumer Electronic Show (CES) 2011 in Las Vegas earlier this month.
AMD's Vice President of Product Marketing for the entire world, Leslie Lobon, acknowledged AMD Fusion APU product requires a long research and a sizable budget. While Vice President of Corporate Clients Division, CTO for the company, Joe Macri, express a number of technical obstacles that they must solve before the end product is finished. But both expressed satisfaction with the outcome because the AMD Fusion APU can overcome some problems associated with AMD products over the years, among others, about the complaints that quickly drains batteries and a fast hot computer.
AMD Fusion APU can be planted, among others, in a tablet computer, netbook, notebook, desktop, and is expected to become the main challenger Atom processor made by Intel. Fusion APU have claimed a much better ability of the Atom. New features available include stutter-free HD video playback, a breakthrough in computing power to handle graphics applications the most weight, has a graphical capabilities of DirectX 11, a battery that can last all day (up to 10 hours or more), and computer stays cool even been used to for hours.
Parties AMD sure, there will be more than 35 AMD-based system that Fusion will be launched in Asia Pacific this summer. AMD hopes of leading computer manufacturers such as Acer, Asus, Dell, Fujitsu, HP, Lenovo, MSI, Samsung, Sony and Toshiba could soon announce their plans to bring the Fusion AMD-based APU system with value and market an affordable price.
"AMD Fusion to change the computing industry by presenting a more realistic digital experience for PC users," said Ben Williams, Corporate Vice President, General Manager, Asia Pacific AMD. He added, "AMD Fusion will provide the technology for partners to create a new form-factor and attractive, and a variety of advanced applications designed to meet the needs of consumers."
Williams believes, new products that will interest the market, including in Indonesia.
Although Indonesia is a growing market, the AMD is optimistic, the need for high-definition content (HD) is now everywhere, from video on YouTube, DirectX11 games, until Blu-ray, and all that can be enjoyed by using computer services . With the technological superiority that have AMD Fusion APU in a computer, users can enjoy the visual computing experience that looks very lively and realistic, they have not previously alamai.
