It is the PCS version that clocks in at a cool 880 MHz on the graphics core with it's memory clocked default at an effective data rate of 5000 MHZ.

AMD took the Tahiti XT GPU sliced away some shader units clocked it a notch slower and planted it onto a new PCB lined up with a new cooler.

ODMs and chip designers jumped onto the bandwagon fast as PC sales are declining and much like the initial netbook market the tablet market is on the rise. We test the The quad-core Tegra 3 based Eee Pad Transformer Prime an unbelievable product.

We'll go even weirder though as today we'll be testing a triple core APU yes that is an APU with three physical CPU cores activated instead of the four you expected. This three CPU cores product was actually announced back in August already but now finally seems to be available in good volume in the stores at the nice price of only 70 EUR here in the Netherlands. http://www.guru3d.com/article/amd-a6-3500-apu-review/ Processors http://www.guru3d.com/article/amd-a6-3500-apu-review/ Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +1000 ASUS recently released its new compact HD media player it's called the OPlay Mini and this is the Plus edition.
