The big new from AMD, meet the 68xx series
AMD has been busy showing off their new Llano APU, four Phenom II-derived CPU cores on a single die
with a graphics processor on the side. For something new they are showing off some silicon that is actually powering a demo and HyperPi, as opposed to just showing off a shiny wafer or three. You can also see some shots of the new HD6870 and HD6850 at The Tech Report, but no benchmarks for a little while yet. Not too long though.
