The AMD E1-1200, which is going to replace the AMD E-300 series Accelerated Processing Unit, has been spotted in a new Acer Aspire E1 laptop PC.
We’ve tried to find differences between the E1-1200 and E-300, but there are only a few of them and the updates are minor. Both dual-core processors belong to the 40-nanometer “Zacate” APU family and have 512KB of L2 cache, a power consumption of 18W, and UVD3 for 1080p HD video decoding. The new APU has a slightly higher clock speed of 1.4GHz as opposed to 1.3GHz on the E-300. The E1-1200 has the built-in AMD Radeon HD 7310 integrated graphics, but judging from its specs it’s the old 80-shader HD 6310 with clock speed set to 500MHz instad of 488MHz.
