AMD Next Generation Desktop strengthened by 9 Series Chipset

Jakarta - AMD launched its 9-series chipset that help fabricators PC platform makes the new generation of high-performance desktop. AMD also released the Tablet Platform HD 2011, AMD-based Accelerated Processing Unit (APU) Z-series, which allows the display sharp and media content creation capabilities for tablet Microsoft Windows.
"Consumers want an increase in visual experience that is more alive, more interesting, and there is a greater need to be high performance, seamless, life graphics and unparalleled computing power," claims John Taylor, Product Marketing Director of AMD.
9-series chipset provides the foundation to open a desktop experience with AMD. The chipset is a key component of "Scorpius", next-generation desktop platform from AMD, which will also feature eight-core processor "Zambezi" and AMD's Radeon HD6000 graphics card series to experience HD entertainment and gaming, extreme multitasking, tweaking, and overclocking.
9-series chipset is the first chipset that supports AMD socket AM3 + processor and incorporates compatibility with the AM3 socket before. This board enables fast performance with support for AMD's CrossFireX technology, which allows up to four GPUs with AMD's Radeon proceed.
Additionally, this chipset supports the management of clock rate via AMD OverDrive software. Range 9-series chipsets have up to six hard drives 3.0 6 Gbps SATA interface port, Gigabit Ethernet, HyperTransport 3.0 technology and PCI Express ® Generation 2.0 for extreme computing experience at work and play.
Range 9-series chipsets will be available from various manufacturers of devices, including ASRock, ASUS, Biostar, ECS, Foxconn Technology Gigabyte Technology, Jetway, and MSI.
Windows Supported AMD Graphics Tablet
Until 2015, Gartner predicts the tablet market could exceed $ 200 million and, as a large and stable market, AMD will continue to expand the options of APU, providing a separate level for the computer graphics tablet and all other forms of mobile devices.

NVIDIA Will support for Tablets

NEW YORK - Nvidia confirms the reason that they can not continue to sell chipsets for PCs, because now everyone wants to buy a tablet.
Jen-Hsun Huang, Nvidia's CEO said that he wanted to make a change, namely to build chipste that supports smart phones and tablets. Similarly, as quoted from Eye Tech, Tuesday (05/31/2011).
"Before using the Nvidia chip is only for PC graphics and available only for PCs only," said Hsun.
Huang added that with growing sales and declining sales of tablet PCs, indicating that Nvidia also have to come jump on it. But now Nvidia also must deal with Intel and AMD, because their processors also have a graphics capability, which must go eat Nvidia's share of sales.
Huang claims that Nvidia is ready now, because opportunities in the market for them is six times greater than before.
Clearly, the plan is the closest in the mobile chip Tegra 2. Tegra chip 2 is in the Droid X2 and tablet types Galaxy Tab 10.1.
The plan, Huang wanted for Nvidia to be important for the Android OS, as the importance of Intel for Windows.
Huang also stated that the first wave of Android tablet is still too expensive, lack of application and the lack of information to the retailer. But he predicts that it will not be a problem in the next wave of Android tablets.
"Tablet Android next wave will probably use quad-core processor, a chipset with four processors," said Huang.
"While the Tegra Chipset 2 will be present in the Eee Pad Transformer TF101, a laptop that is now turned into a tablet," he added.
In addition, Huang also berprediksi if within two to three years ahead of Android will rule the tablet operating system worldwide.
