AMD’s new Fusion/Brazos platform is an exciting step up for entry level computing. Previously, an Intel Atom required supplemental graphics help from NVIDIA in the form of Ion. Now, for the first time, one manufacturer provides a complete solution for entry level computing, gaming and HTPC activities:

  • computing – web surfing, email, word processing (Intel Atom already does this) with the addition of Adobe Flash acceleration (which still has a few bugs to be worked out)
  • gaming – many recent 3D games fully playable at low to medium settings (previously required Intl Atom + NVIDIA Ion)
  • home theatre PC (HTPC) – good video decoding for most video tasks, including 1080p video

You can read a great introduction to one of the first Brazos motherboards here:
