Matt,

Your article is misleading at best. You are not giving the whole story. Such as Whetstone and Dhrystone are very old and outdated, especially when trying to test advanced processors like the Trinity APU. You don’t tell your readers that Microsoft and Intel had a long standing collusion to write the O.S. code to perform especially fast on the Intel Architecture. That is until Intel recently started courting Google and the Google OS, and now Microsoft and AMD have been working hard at making sure the Windows 8 will maximize the 8 cores of the Bulldozer (something Win7 is incapable of doing).

You don’t tell your readers that in these tests you run, the test software and OS won’t even touch half of the processors power and that especially on the Bulldozer 4 and sometimes 5 of the cores are not even being used, because the Technology is beyond Win7 capability. You don’t tell them that Unix and Linux have very few challenges smoking the Intel when you put dollar against dollar for processors.

Be honest and tell the whole story, not just what your Intel biased thinks.

Your statement — “As a former AMD fanboy it pains me to see the company in its current position, but it’s hard to make an argument for these new mobile processors even if you want to” IS AWESOME !!!
YOUR post makes absolute sense. This is a great genuine and unbiased review. Intel’s processors are awesome… you can do anything with it.. maybe calculate distance to moon daily with 124 decimal accuracy… guy have to encode.. decode and dance with video on a constant basis and playback is better in 12fps than 25 fps..Intel with dedicated card you get 50fps.. in this case having 50 is better than 25fps .Also i have to compress tons ot data daily. Intel’s igp is awesome intel’s GMA kicks radeon’s a**. amd apu’s have radeon onboard but intel’s processing power can beat that. Why need decent graphics..better processor will solve everything.

LOL, A10-4600M+HD7670M laptops with dual graphics are gonna wipe the floor with HD4000. Like Llano the strength of Trinity is when xfire’d with a low end dGPU.

Seeing as such laptops are going to be in the $600-$800 range they will *destroy* Intel in the mid range market.

Hmmm….should I buy a laptop that can play games?….or one that can calculate Pi faster?….Wow, that’s a tough one….

Sheesh.

Unlike you Matt…. I throw straight up facts out. Gppd and bad. I am not gonna just grab the good reviews out without giving the whole facts. I am not biased.

Actually no it wont. That trinity runs in crossfire mode. Graphic Processor ATI Radeon 7670M + AMD Radeon 7640G. Intel has yet to figure out the dual gpu advantages. Not that they ever cared about gamers.

I don’t think Trinity + CrossFire systems are for sale yet. Not in the North America at least. There aren’t any listed on Newegg or Amazon.

Here is a system that will out-game the HP you listed.

You can actually get that configuration for less in the United States ($524 before shipping on HP’s website) and it is a very good deal.

Though I’m not sure why you selected a user review that states that laptop is overheating.

AMD fanboy. Your comment is a flat out lie. Trinity HANDILY beats Llano in every aspect. Intel cant crossfire. if you wish to spend the amounts hes saying you can get a Trinity based machine with an ATI discrete video and still slam the Intel machines due to crossfire technology. Intel is a Lexus? LOL You are probably Matt on a second account. Take a look atthe machine atthe bottom post. Find an Intel that will out game it. Then get back with us. Just stop.
