AMD business-class "Trinity" APUs are shipped in Lenovo desktop

Oct 08, 2012: Last week AMD launched second-generation "Trinity" APUs, from entry-level A4-5300 with 2 CPU cores, and up to A10-5800K with twice as many cores, 4 times larger cache, unlocked clock multiplier and 3 times as many GPU shaders. In addition to these consumer-oriented products, several business-class "Trinity" processors started shipping in Lenovo ThinkCentre M78 small desktop PC. Business-class APUs will be also available in HP Compaq Pro 6305 PC.

AMD business-class "Trinity" APUs are in the works

Aug 23, 2012: In good old days of K10-based processors, AMD had quite a variety of different Athlon and Phenom SKUs. In addition to mainstream chips, the company shipped mid- and low-power versions, as well as "business-class" models, that offered greater longevity than consumer grade counterparts. Current generation of "Llano" APUs and FX CPUs doesn't offer that kind of variety, but that should change with the launch of "Trinity" chips in October.
