VIA Nano DC and VN1000 Preview - Dual Core Nanos Finally in the Pipe

[news 28]

Since the original VIA Nano was released, we have been expecting the

dual core version to eventually hit the scene. Now after several

years, we have our hands on the first samples of this new product. We

also were able to see what the VIA VN1000 integrated graphics chipset

can do in the face of the latest competition from AMD.

Quote: "VIA really needs to get these products out the door quickly,

as the market is about to experience another burst of competition.

The main source of worry for the folks at VIA (and possibly Intel as

well) is the upcoming AMD Ontario and Zacate parts. The amazingly low

TDPs of these processors, combined with their unique dual core

architecture and what looks to be class leading graphics performance,

has apparently struck a chord with many manufacturers hoping to get

into higher powered netbooks and tablet products."

 

Thanks for posting our news!!
