List of AMD A microprocessors
Encyclopedia
The AMD A-series is a new processor line, containing AMD "Husky" microarchitecture CPU cores (themselves modified AMD 10h designs) and integrated AMD Radeon
graphics processing units, both in the same package.
Radeon
Radeon is a brand of graphics processing units and random access memory produced by Advanced Micro Devices , first launched in 2000 by ATI Technologies, which was acquired by AMD in 2006. Radeon is the successor to the Rage line. There are four different groups, which can be differentiated by...
