Trinity/Piledriver performance?

[Ulti]

Does anyone have any news on how much performance trinity/Piledriver (not sure what the next iteration of llano is called) will have over existing llano CPUs in terms of CPU power and gpu power?

I know that bulldozer has been a failure for most people but please don't bash AMD here

At least under Linux Trinity CPU performance seems to be better than Llano ATM.

It is called Trinity.

Not expecting a huge performance increase tbh.

All we know is this:
Piledriver is an improvement on Bulldozer, but no idea how much.
Llano has yield problems which have hit AMD quite hard.

What I am expecting is that this is the fix AMD need for their yield problems, and hopefully that will improve their profit margins. If they can reduce the area of silicon they need with the new design, then that too will improve profits.

This is a mainstream part. If you care about performance, you probably want to stay on AM3+ for the foreseeable future anyway.

Well as you see, I've got a Pentium G620 so I'm not too hungry for performance. It's just perhaps in the future I may like to play some games and I'm more of an RPG player. However I love my ISK-100 so I don't want a dedicated graphics card but it only has an 80W PSU so I'm wanting to see if perhaps the dual core Trinity APUs will have enough power, if not then a low power quad core one.

Of course I'll also need to look at the new platform boards. I've got Borderlands and Last Remnant which I've got in Steam sales and I've yet to play them!
