AMD would plan to use the first Trinity apus for notebooks 15 may to announce. The desktopvarianten follow later in the year. The gpu of Trinity performs well in 3DMark, according to AMD 50 per cent better than that of the current Llano-apus.
It was generally thought that AMD in June, the Computex trade show in Taiwan would seize for its Trinity apus to introduce. XBitLabs and Sweclockers claim, however, heard that the official release on may 15 will take place. It would, therefore, only to the apus for mainstreamlaptops. In June would be the economical variants for thin & lights follow.
The Trinity apus are 32nm produced, just like the current Llano’s. The cpu cores in Trinity are based on the Piledriver architecture, successor to Bulldozer, and AMD with apus for notebook with a tdp of 17W and 25W, although also about 35W and 45W. The gpu in Trinity is based on the 7000 series gpu’s. On the average, would the Trinity apu’s 25% better than Llano at the PCMark Vantage Productivity benchmark, while the gpu is even 50% better score in 3DMark Vantage, claims AMD itself. Previously, the company already known that the gpu of Trinity significantly better performance than that of Ivy Bridge.
The mass production of apus, also that of the desktop variants with a tdp of 65W, it would have already started at Global Foundries. The mass production of the A-variants for the desktop with a tdp of 100W and above would start in may.
