The new 'Fusion' processors incorporate a graphics card (GPU) and microprocessor (CPU) on a single chip, allowing computer-makers to develop new form factors for devices.
"AMD Fusion will eliminate the need for consumers to choose between power and performance... This will also allow our partners to offer exciting new form factors on a robust computing platform," AMD India Managing Director and Regional VP (Sales and Marketing) Ravi Swaminathan said.
Over 11 systems based on the new AMD Fusion chipset will be launched in India in the first half of 2011 by manufacturers like Sony, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Asus, MSI and Toshiba.
However, no pricing details were available. "Through Fusion, AMD is targeting the 'sweet spot' for accelerated high-definition experiences across notebooks, desktops and HD netbooks," AMD Corporate Vice-President, Fusion Experience Programme, Manju Hegde said.
