Article Title: AMD Shows 32nm Fusion Llano APUs Running AvPAMD invited Legit Reviews to get some personal time with their Llano platform and also invited use to a private showing of this platform. We were not told any specific clock frequencies or model numbers, but were shown the full length demo scene from of Aliens Versus Predator. We found that it was running rather smoothly with DX11 setting enabled at a screen resolution of 1280x1024. From the image above you can see the development board did not have any discrete PCIe video cards being run, so all this was being done on just the processor.
