HIGHLIGHT REVIEW
In mid-2011, AMD released their first generation of Accelerated Processing Units codenamed “Llano”. Benchmark Reviews was right there with the scoop on the A8-3850 Lynx APU, which provided significantly improved performance over its Sandy Bridge competitor, especially in GPU-centric benchmarks. Now Intel has released Ivy Bridge, which increased performance over Sandy Bridge, and AMD has responded by releasing their second generation of APUs.
