AMD’s First Fusion Microprocessors to Be Dual-Core Mobile Chips.

[SRTDodge05]

Advanced Micro Devices revealed some more information about its Fusion microprocessors that combine general purpose processing cores as well as graphics processing engines. The information revealed by the world’s second largest maker of x86 chips is slightly different compared to the data revealed a month before, which may indicate that the company still has no specs of the product set on stone.

Apparently, the first AMD Fusion processors that are named Swift will feature two x86 cores along with a graphics core and will be aimed at mobile computers, it was revealed by Patrick Moorhead, vice president of advanced marketing at AMD, in an interview with InfoWorld web-site. Later on quad-core microprocessor with integrated memory controller is possible. Last month another high-ranking AMD executive said that the first Fusion chip will have two or three x86 processing engines.

end 2009 the first CPU/GPU fusion product.
Is it me or does it take way too long for AMD to get this fusion ready.
Maybe they think that fusion means a complete new integrated design....
