According to available data, the processors Atom D410 and D510, are part of the platform Pineview, which should appear in 2010, there will not be faster than current Atom processors 230 and 330, used primarily in the netbook, and now users can only rely on the fact that the version of Atom in 2011, codenamed Cedarview-D will provide a significant increase in speed. Given the fact that Cedarview-D will be a 32nm model, one would expect a significant increase in clock speed, but Intel claims that really should be expected to increase the productivity of only five to ten percent. A key argument to justify this rather disappointing increase in productivity is the assertion that the manufacturer was able to improve processor performance with lower power consumption.

The new platform Cedar trail-D promises to come up with a power consumption of the whole platform is less than 10W, which in the world of computers sounds like a small miracle, but the market of portable devices is at least 10 times, if not more, than the desired value. Thus, even in 2011, the Atom processor will be much faster than the version that was released in late 2008, but he would have a smaller form factor and lower power consumption.

It seems that the graphics core, which will be built in Cedarview, will be similar to that which will soon appear on the market with 32nm processors Arrandale with 45nm GPU. The main difference, of course, would be that the incorporated graphics Cedar Trail-D will be fraction of the CPU, plus will be on the identical 32nm process technology, while in Arrandale 45nm graphics core only installed on the same plate as the 32nm processor.

The new-fangled GPU, which will be Atom-2011, ie in the Cedar Trail-D, will support DirectX 10 and 10.1, Open GL 2.1 and 3.0, and probably some future versions of OpenGL, but he will not support DirectX 11.The maximum supported resolution is 1080p @ 120Hz and 2560x1600 @ 60Hz, which is certainly more than necessary for most of us. This graphics core supports two independent display, eDP, HDMI 1.3a, DisplayPort 1.1a, as well as interfaces, VGA and LVDS.

The source also said that Intel is going to get rid of DIMM support in future desktop devices on Atom, known as a nettop. CPU Atom, which will be released in January next year and codenamed "Pine Trail-D, will support single-channel memory DDR2 DIMM, but the one that appears in 2011, will only support a SODIMM.

Perhaps this will increase the value system, as well as memory SODIMM, traditionally used in laptops, a few more. Platform Cedar Trail-D will only support a single-channel DDR3 memory in the form SODIMM DDR3-1066, which should be fast enough to support this platform. Be possible to use two memory modules, but both modules should be SODIMM.

By mid-2011 the price of DDR3 DIMM should have become acceptable, since by that time DDR3 will become the dominant memory standard on the market, and as the laptop market all the time will increase the price of DDR3 SODIMM modules for the platform Cedar Trail-D does not have much to increase the cost of the system. In any case, Intel has decided, and we, as consumers, have no right to vote.
