The source adds some interesting things about the graphics performance of the forthcoming platform Atom. Of course, it is a platform for netbooks based on the 32nm processor Atom (Cedarview), which is scheduled for release in late 2011.

Processor Pineview, known under the code-named Atom 2010, will have a schedule similar to the graph Atom 08/09, or N270, but Cedarview should be able to double the results of the predecessors in 3DMark06. That is, performance 32nm processor Atom Cedarview, which will be the year and a half, should be much higher performance 45nm processor Atom Pineview, the appearance of which is expected in early 2010. It's very important statement by Intel, according to which it will be the first platform of Atom, which will be presented by Intel and will be able to play HD at a sufficiently high quality, including 1080p.

At the end of 2011 the concept of Ion starts to become quite obsolete, but it is only in the case, if nVidia cannot be done do CUDA and other types of computing on the GPU is very important. Developer’s nVidia is about one and a half years to have success. If you do not succeed, then nVidia will have to revert to its old arguments that the driver and devices based on nVidia chips are much better for the game, and that everyone should know.
