AMD dreamed it, Intel made it: next gen Atom CPU has integrated graphics
Intel has just announced their new line of Atom processors, with integrated graphics on the same die (piece of silicon) - an idea that rival AMD has been preaching for years under the "Fusion" name. Using its 45nm manufacturing process, Intel's new Atom chips use less power (25%-50%) and use a reduced footprint (60% to 70% because there are two chips instead of three).
Most Netbooks released at CES will use the Atom N450, while low-priced desktop machines will use the Atom D410 or the dual-core version named D510. Both processors are designed to work on the same motherboard chipset NM10 Express from Intel.
