Footnotes 

  1. Power projections based on calculations carried out by AMD Performance Labs measuring total system and individual component power at Windows Idle and under  various system loads while web browsing and/or viewing a 9:57 minute online video in h.264 format, viewed at 1080P setting at 100 nits.  The AMD “Larne” reference platform is projected to measure APU power at 1.2 W at idle, 1.40 W during web browsing, 2.35 W during video playback and .02 W during a system S3 “sleep” state.   Total system power for the reference platform is projected at 2.8 W at idle, 3.7 W during web browsing, 5.3 W during video playback and .07 W during a system S3 “sleep” state.   Battery life calculations were derived using a 35Whr battery pack at 98% utilization. The power projections are based on the “Larne” reference system with a configuration including the A4-1200 Dual  Core 1.0GHz APU, AMD Radeon™ HD 8180 series graphics, 2GB DDR3-1066 system memory and Microsoft Windows 8.  TEM-1
  2. AMD App Acceleration is a set of technologies designed to improve video quality and enhance application performance. Full enablement of some features requires support for OpenCL™ or DirectCompute (including AMD's Universal Video Decoder (UVD)). Not all products have all features and full enablement of some capabilities may require complementary products.
  3. AMD Perfect Picture HD is an image, video processing and display technology that features advanced de-interlacing, dynamic contrast adjustment, color vibrancy, noise reduction and edge enhancement that provides brilliant colors and sharp images for smooth playback of Blu-ray and other HD content on your PC.
  4. Test conducted in AMD Performance Labs using FutureMark 3DMark 06 as a metric for GPU performance. The AMD A6-1450 APU-based system scored 2624 while the Intel Atom Z2760 based system scored 451. The platforms tested were the "Larne" reference platform with an AMD A6-1450 Quad Core 1.0GHz APU, AMD Radeon™ HD 8280 series graphics, 2GB DDR3-1066 system memory and Microsoft Windows 8, versus an Acer ICONIA W510-1666 with an Intel Atom Z2760 1.5GHz CPU, Intel integrated graphics, 2GB DDR3-1066 system memory and Microsoft Windows 8. TEM-5.
  5. AMD Start Now technology is a BIOS optimized solution designed to deliver better system responsiveness by minimizing the time to wake up the system from sleep mode, boot the system to desktop and connect to a wireless local area network. Actual times will vary based on operating system, APU, driver, disk drive and memory speed. AMD Start Now technology is available with select AMD APUs when running Windows 7; compatibility with Windows 8 is expected. Check with your component or system manufacturer or retailer for specific model capabilities.
