The smartphone guts race just got a bit more interesting—dark horse Marvell has just outed the first ever 1.5GHz ARM tri-core mobile processor. The Armada 628 pairs two high-performance cores with one optimized for low-power. Take that, Snapdragon.
The Armada 628 also supports 1080p 3D video, USB 3.0, and DDR3 memory, and can project images to two LCD displays at the same time.

AMD has been trying to crack their Fusion technology—combining a CPU and a powerful GPU in the same chip—for years now. Today, they showed off working Fusion chips in a demo that got Intel and Nvidia’s attention:
If the Fusion APU (accelerated processing unit) amounts to everything that was promised, it’ll be an extremely appealing alternative for OEMs. And it seems as though they’re at least on the right track
But keep in mind that they’re still a few months off from being finished with these babies, and that they’re intended to go into ultraportables, at least initially.
