Preview: Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5126 AMD E-240 15-in Notebook

[news 28]

AMD has been making promises about the future of our computing lives

revolving around this thing called "Fusion". We previewed the world of

the AMD Brazos platform late last year and now we have our first

retail notebook based on the Zacate processor, AMD's E-240 single-core

APU. Does the Toshiba C655D-S5126 live up to the hype of the last 18

months?

Quote: "Also worth noting in my testing that even while running 3DMark

Vantage, the Toshiba C655D has never gotten even remotely warm to the

touch. Nor are there any loud fans running the whole time. The

promises from AMD of a very cool computing environment with longer

battery life that most Atom platforms seems to be met with this

machine, even if the performance delta from Intel's options is less

than I would have liked."

 

Thanks for posting our news!
