Common sense tells us that AMD's Puma notebook platform will be based
on the desktop
780G
model. As such, it'll pack in a DX10-compliant GPU right on to the
chipset, which'll offer decent 3D gaming performance and a helping hand
with decoding high-definition content, usually from Blu-ray titles,
amongst other desirable attributes.
AMD reckons it's raked in over 100 design wins for Puma, and we managed
to snag a picture of Toshiba's upcoming Puma-powered, lightweight
Dynabook before AMD heavies took it away. After all, the platform
hasn't even been released yet.
The svelte machine doesn't have much room for a discrete mobile
graphics card, and that's why Puma's integrated GPU, Radeon HD 3200,
makes sense.
A look at Device Manager reveals all. Puma will be based around the
Turion Ultra X2 dual-core CPU - which appears to be pretty much
performance-identical to the incumbent Turion 64 X2 - and Radeon HD
3200 graphics.
The WEI score of 3.8 is impressive for a thin-and-light laptop
that features integrated graphics.
Add in a solid-state drive and the Dynabook becomes a formidable
notebook in the thin-and-light space.
Puma, then, seems to have legs, and we'll be spotting a greater number
of models, of various sizes, as the show progresses.
Stay tuned for more Puma coverage.
