reports AMD shared a die shot of the upcoming Llano "Fusion" APU. More details can be found at PC Per.
The die size overall on the Llano part should be between 170 mm squared and 210 mm squared, based on rough estimates comparing the die size of the 45 nm Phenom IIs with the full L3 cache. It should be an improvement for AMD in terms of manufacturing, but it certainly is not as efficient as their native 45 nm dual core design with 1 MB of L2 cache per core or the Athlon II X4s.
