With Temash, AMD appears to already have a chip with the CPU power of Intel's Bay Trail combined with the same generation of GPU performance that is expected in the Tegra 5. Another die shrink and they should be able to get the power requirements low enough for phone use.

In 2014 will AMD be in a good position to take a huge chunk of the phone market or will it take them too long to figure out how to integrate the modems they'd need to be competitive?

LOL, AMD will get to produce a chip for phone when they are brough out by qualcomm.

Latest ARM chip: $20.
Haswell chip: $225 (pricing never changes).

So yeah.... :whiste:

More expensive, but not THAT much.

Core i5 3427U: $225
Core i5 3317U: $225
Core i3 3227U: $225

They cost EXACTLY the same, but if you ever tried to customize Ultrabooks, you know the i3 is cheaper than the rest.

Their ASPs(Average Selling Prices) are about $110 on the "Core" parts, so i3 may be selling even less than that.
