Anyone got specs on the HD 6410D? Google search came up dry.

[Jedibeeftrix]

are these native dual-cores, and how many shaders?

[CAT-THE-FIFTH]

The HD6410D has 160 shaders. The HD6400 series GPUs have 160 shaders.

Looking at the specifications of the HD6410D suggests it will be quite close to the performance of the HD6450 DDR3.

would that indicate that this is the native dual-core part?

would that indicate that this is the native dual-core part?

My understanding from the launch articles was that the first run of dual-cores would be full dies with the extra cores and shaders fused off, and that the "native" dual cores (i.e. using a smaller die) would be released later. Don't know how these fit in to that though - if they had better than expected yields they may have been able to bring the native ones forward, or these could be fused off full Llano dies...

cheers,

i am hoping that the the arrival of the dual-cores will encourage the ultra-book makers to leverage their investment by offering AMD versions too, i'd love something with ultrabook portability but the sandy-bridge GPU is not sufficient.
