AMD Fusion a tough nut to crack

Posted on Friday, September 18 2009 @ 2:20 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

FUD Zilla reports AMD is now working on its third Fusion project, as the first two failed:

The one scheduled for 2008 was canceled, the one scheduled for 2009 / 2010 is canceled and Llano , the one that should show its face in 32nm and 2011 is still on.

Native CPU with GPU is much harder to develop than AMD believed and now the company is paying a big price for its arrogance and claim that it has the technological advantage. Overall integration is great for MIDs and notebooks, but as we said, it’s a tough cookie.
