say it simply, Llano has the potential to outperform any current platforms as far as general gaming performance is concerned... but for ACF the key lies in optimization on the games side... no optimization = as good as using 1 GPU only... but if optimized well HD6775G2 can even outperform GTX 460M...

with such a low price and such performance, even without ACF it's pretty much worth the money...

as for the dv6 u re talking abt, no, there's no dv6z... HP's Llano models are still marketed as normal dv6... seen them in Aus here before...

both GPU are at the same performance lvl...

Asynchronous CrossFire

Hybrid CrossFire is different... in this mode either the dGPU or iGPU is running at any given time... the max performance u get is wat the dGPU is capable of... however Hybrid CrossFire is a subset of Asychronous CrossFire...

Asynchronous CrossFire means both the dGPU and fGPU are running together in standard CrossFire mode to achieve higher performance than the dGPU alone...

but unlike normal (or Synchronous) CrossFire, which usually has 2 GPU of the same model (and thus same amount of SP, same memory bandwidth, same memory type), Asynchronous CrossFire has 2 GPU of different models and SP count... eg HD6755G2 = HD6620G (400SP, 128-bit DDR3 shared) + HD6750M (480SP, 128-bit GDDR5)

also unlike normal CrossFire, if u use 2 GPU of different model, the better GPU will be limited by the worse off (think of the situation when u ve RAM of different speed running together), but for Asynchronous CrossFire it seems that both GPU are performing at full capacity...

For Llano only

The good:
- cheap, high performance/cost ratio
- integrated graphic (or fGPU as AMD calls it) that can smoke any low end GPU in the market
- low power consumption (iirc A8 has longer battery life than Core i7)

The bad:
- medicore CPU performance
- ACF highly dependent on optimization

In a nut shell:
for those who wants mainstream graphic performance but on a tight budget, and those looking for a multimedia machine

it has the potential to ve great graphic performance...

well, N43 has already EOL and replaced by N45... wat do u think?

well my HD4650 still can eat Black Ops for breakfast...
