I take no allegiance. Whatever is better, give it to me. I've been using Intel for quite a while, but AMD has done a good job with their 5000 series video cards, a good comeback. I really can't wait to see what they've been working on when it came to central processors. Although, Intel is tough to beat.]]>May 12th 2010 1:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/May 12th 2010 1:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/i've never seen so many tags on an engadget article before....]]>May 12th 2010 3:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/
Nope.

AMD said they would skip netbooks for a market in between. Considering the hype around netbooks it was quite surprising. Guess they predicted the boom in thin and lights, good timing too considering intel getting greedy with their CULVs. Not that Atom is dead, but manufacturers aren't seeing much profit.]]>May 12th 2010 12:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/May 12th 2010 12:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/May 12th 2010 12:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/Competition is good!
I wonder how these CULV's will compete with Intel's Core i7-640UM]]>May 12th 2010 12:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/May 12th 2010 12:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/

Wrong. They support up to 10.1.

Most consumers (including me) already have the connection of AMD=inexpensive and fast implanted in their brains.

So liquid nitrogen cool processors for that fresh minty 36% performance score.


I smell rigged results. But hey. Whatever works. ]]>May 12th 2010 12:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/
As much as they reduce power consumption, they still can't overcome the limitation of 45nm production, compared to the power savings of the 32nm chips from Intel.]]>May 12th 2010 12:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/12/amd-promises-better-battery-life-and-thermals-with-new-neo-cpus/
