Intel and its new Pineview Atom processors are not the only ones to make the buzz on the web in recent days. It is also the case of new Phenom belonging to the Danube AMD mobile platform scheduled for 2010.
Operating with integrated processor cores to 4, the Champlain, Danube has also RX881 chipset, RS880M and RS880MC.
45nm, Champlain processors based on K10 architecture integrating a DDR3 memory controller.
Side graphics, RS880M chipset shipped him a chip Mobility Radeon HD4200 which supports DirectX 10.1 and hardware acceleration for decoding videos in High Definition.
S88xxM chipsets can also support 14 USB 2.0 ports (2 USB 1.1), 4 PCI-Express, 6 SATA (with RAID support) and Gigabit Ethernet.
Three of the 12 processors announced to run on the Danube are based on an older architecture: the simple model V120 AMD heart and double heart Athlon II P320 and N330.
Here are summarized in a table known characteristics of the processors running the new AMD platform Danube, the top model is the quad core Phenom X920 Black Edition II:
