[citation][nom]silverblue[/nom]I'm really not sure that's the intention. Sure, it supports DirectX 11, but we all know that below the 5700 series, there's little point using it. The true strength of Brazos' GPU is slightly older games or ones that don't require masses of bandwidth because that single channel memory interface will strangle it in the end.[/citation]
Well, I have to disagree with you there... I'm waiting for the Lenovo x100e to hit the stores already (here in Chile), because I have my "gaming" rig to do so in full blown bling bling shiny happy colors, but I ain't taking that 20+kilo (44pounds) beast to a friends house and have a little LAN party, watch some videos (on the go BTW) and, yes, game with him. You can't do that with even a "super gaming" notebook these days cause they weight a friggin' TON and battery life doesn't exist when u want to game or do "funny" stuff on the go.
Small and handy for almost every task you throw at it; that's Brazos so far. That's the little big appeal it has on that price segment that Intel can't beat at this moment. That's why it's kind of important having in mind what "Brazos" stands for in the long run. I'm really curious about what Llano is going to do in the Notebook area.
All in all, Intel is just bulling us with price 'till Llano gets here. Damn you Intel!
Cheers!
