FUD Zilla writes AMD's Tigris notebook platform will be succeeded by Danube next year, possibly around June 2010. This new mainstream notebook platform will feature the "Champaign" quad-core Phenom II processors, DDR3 memory, RS880M chipset with DX10.1 IGP and the SB820M southbridge. Also part of Danube is the Manhattan graphics card series, this is a mobile DirectX 11 GPU.
Danube will have Champain which we guess is Phenom II quad-core mobile edition and the platform includes support for DDR3 / DDR3L (1.35V) and S1g4 socket. The CPU is manufactured in 45nm and should be available in June 2010. Naturally, the platform also supports some new K10.5 Phenom II dual-core processors.
