Automatically adjusts an AMD APU powered hybrid tablet’s performance.
I wonder how heavy the whole thing will end up being.
Definitely something i will be keeping my eye on right now!
A better idea would be to have a AMD APU in the tablet and a AMD graphics card in the Keyboard/Add on part, when they are joined it does some crossfire wizardry increasing the graphics capability.
Should it be any heavier than an equivalent Intel-powered one? Sure, they'll not be able to match the weight savings you can get from an ARM device, but I can think of a lot of folks who'd happily accept a heavier device if they got laptop+ performance.Quote:

I definitely like this idea.Quote:

I like this idea of AMD's quite a lot - don't think it'l replace either my existing tablets or my gaming PC, but it could form the basis of a pretty solid device to sit in between those two - maybe even comparable to current "gaming" laptops...
Yes, or a full discrete class HD Radeon Mobile GPU, something like 7870M or even 7970MQuote:
