There are a number of ways you could compare Intel's and AMD's hardware, labeling one elegant and the other brutish.

On one hand, AMD tackles x86 workloads using a quad-core APU rated at 100 W, while Intel holds its own with a dual-core 65 W part. In this context, AMD is brute-forcing performance as Intel operates efficiently. On the other, software developers are increasingly harnessing AMD's on-die graphics resources to accelerate optimized applications, while Intel is left to plod through everything in software. Increasingly, the mantle of elegance is being shifted toward AMD's approach.

Now, Intel does enable OpenCL support on its HD Graphics 4000- and 2500-equipped Ivy Bridge-based chips. However, the entry-level is where performance is needed most, and the company's lower-end parts don't include support for this yet. Moreover, certain applications still only support OpenCL on AMD's graphics hardware.

Today's story involved an APU that was available one year ago and a CPU that came around this time last year. Back then, we had older versions of many of these apps and very few examples of OpenCL-enabled software. Now, we can go back, maintain the same hardware platforms, and compare how the software side has evolved. In many cases, both AMD and Intel are enjoying big speed-ups as developers write more threaded code. But as we incorporate Open CL-based testing, AMD is clearly enjoying the most drastic improvements.

A6都唔會差A8太遠

I love APU
