The graphics chip. Your 9300 IGP is better than the intel's integrated in i5.
With core i5, the whole rendereing is propably done on CPU as the GPU drivers may not support the API's required for the HW acceleration of the application.
I would think a 2-2.4 Ghz clock should be easily possible. Though that would encroach on dual core Llano territory so the chances of a high clocked Ontario part are slim. Its the same reason why Intel hasnt released high clocked Atom's for the low end desktop market
I'd be more interested in the 28nm refresh of Ontario, which i suppose we can expect in Q1/Q2 2012. And Atom's 32nm refresh is also expected in Q4 2011
I don't think so - I doubt this is using dx compute, cuda or opencl... Of course, that doesn't mean the gpu has to be fast or the driver optimized for it
.Direct2D. And whoops...I don't think so - I doubt this is using dx compute, cuda or opencl... Of course, that doesn't mean the gpu has to be fast or the driver optimized for it
Or was it demonstrated in IE? Maybe it doesn't always work there either. Seems to be somewhat bugridden on Intel graphics at any rate, but more details about the test (browser/drivers) would be needed to tell if it's representative.Bugzilla said:

The last video link above is IE9.
Well that more looks like some bug in an old intel graphics driver and mozilla devs screwing up detection of driver versions (because apparently intel doesn't make it easy to detect versions). I doubt IE is doing the same...

basically comes down to hacking intel drivers and it still comes up short of Zacate.
Amazing the way AMD opened their sample to Anand for benchmarking.

Legit has a 5450 with DDR3 http://www.legitreviews.com/article/1202/4/
23fps at 1280x1024 with everything on high
PCPer at 1680x1050 with medium: http://www.pcper.com/article.php?aid=866&type=expert&pid=3
30fps
Now we just need someone with a 5450 and the directcompute sample.

Well. Legit tested with i7, not sure how much CPU-dependable Batman is.
But still its
16fps @ 1024x768 high for Zacate (PS: neliz pointed it was not low)
23fps @ 1280x1024 very high for 5450
I guess 64-bit ddr3 for both cpu+gpu is too starving

We don't even know the clocks, so can't really tell if memory bandwidth is to blame.
I really didn't expect them to put just a single channel DDR3 controller in there. Though if equipped with DDR3-1333 its almost as good as dual channel DDR2 667 which is what Core 2 Duo and Athlon X2's used for the longest time. Still in this case as there is a GPU as well they really should have gone dual channel, especially since there will be use of LV DDR3 1066.
As for the GPU specs im guessing its half a Cedar after looking at those performance results. Clocks should be 400-500 mhz.
Also with regard to CPU performance, a Core i5 is like three to four times as powerful as Zacate

Dual channel would have..
1) made motherboards bigger and more expensive
2) maybe made the chip pad limited, increasing the die size a lot
So single-channel memory was the right choice for zacate/ontario.
I see no good basis for that guess.
The performance of the GPU may be slightly slower than 5450 because of lower memory bandwidth.
And I would not too put big value on comparing anand's zacate numbers with those legitreviews 5450 numbers, they are quite apples-to-oranges comparison, not even sure if it's running the same timedemo, and they used much more powerful cpu etc.
That's what's making the Zacate numbers even more impressive, as a whole package it seems extremely powerful for the market it's positioning in. you're talking about comparing an 18W APU against an i7-975 + HD5450 in those numbers. That it's only half the framerate says even more about the CPU part than the GPU part.
