AMD ships Trinity processor, aims for a piece of Intel's ultrabook market
Built on the legacy of Bulldozer, Trinity is competitive with Intel—sort of.
On May 15, AMD officially unveiled Trinity, the company's successor to its Llano line of "Fusion" processors that combine CPU and GPU into a single part. The company announced five models of the new processor: three for "mainstream" notebook computers, desktops, and "all-in-one" systems; and two targeted at what AMD calls the "ultrathin" notebook market.
