Wow thats differnt....
Amd is putting a GPU inside a CPU, this integrated GPU, can be used with ANY 6xxx series card to get a performance boost for said dedicated card. Which I think sounds brillant (free video performance, no matter which discreet card you put into the system, from the APU). Along with that they ll enable even those without discret cards to have GPGPU avaliable, so it makes sense that they can use the horsepower of said cpu gpu area, even when not doing grafics to help do cpu stuff (though gpgpu).
Nvidia is putting a CPU, inside their GPU.... wont that just make them reach the PCIe wall of watts used limit faster? What would the onboard CPU in the grafics card do? Is that just like... a RISK cpu for netcard/soundcards? so they dont stress the real computers cpu as much?
