1015B and 1215B Asus EeePC choose AMD Fusion

I guess I will not be the only one who has to take a look at the website to determine which model are we talking about when I meet an Asus EeePC netbook, develop many versions that change just one letter, it is good that we include in our ed one of the models. The newcomers are the Asus EeePC 1015B and 1215B, as we can deduce from his name the first model is 10.1 inches and 12.1 inches second.

The most important innovations come from the use of AMD Fusion. We remind you that behind the name AMD Fusion hide the APU (Accelerated Processing Unit) that AMD and ATI are developing and are characterized by including in the same package of processor, 3D acceleration and other functions of GPU.

In the case of Asus EeePC Model 1015B uses the APU Ontario C-30, which runs at 1.2GHz and has a single core. There will be a version available with the Ontario C-50, dual core, this time at 1GHz. Both models inside a GPU Radeon HD 6250. If we go to the Asus EeePC model 1215B, opts for dual-core Grass, namely the E-350, which runs at 1.6GHz, accompanied by a Radeon HD 6310.

We want to check the actual performance in power and range of the latest developments of AMD. Storage capacity on all models is 500GB, and in regard to RAM, for the 12.1-inch model we found in 2 and 4GB configurations, while little is available with 1 or 2GB of DDR3 RAM . Common specifications are n WiFi connectivity, 0.3 megapixel webcam, HDMI output, Bluetooth 2.1 (3.0 on some models), plus three USB 2.0 ports and one 3.0.

With respect to autonomy, the 10.1-inch model comes with a 3-cell battery (23W / h), expandable to 6-cell option. In the latter case, the C30 chip (56W / h) has a range of 8.5 hours, and the C50, 7.5 hours. The 12.1-inch Asus comes with 6 cells and has a range of 8 hours. We do not forget to report the screen resolution, in the case of small model we are left with 1024 x 600 pixels, while the 1215B EeePC we will use the most appropriate for HD content, 1366 x 768 pixels.

We ended up with the specifications, talking a little about its size, moving in what we have seen in previous Asus EeePC, and is that the design has not changed much as you can see in the pictures. Let the data: We do not have knowledge of pricing or availability dates, but we know they are products that end up appearing in major markets and we will pay attention to his departure to inform.

No need to remember that computers running Windows 7.
