VIA Nano X2 - News from Taiwan

VIA is the third producer in the league when it comes to x86, and so is Windows-compatible hardware. Although the CPU forged in Europe, at least for the consumer does not really present, from time to time, however, find some deals with old or older Epia C7 processors.


via_nano_x2Now it was a long overdue step, and the old 65nm version of the VIA Nano shrinkte down to 40nm. In addition, we combined the two shy of a nano dual core into a single piece of silicon, which gives off less heat than the previous, higher clocks and also compatible to the old model remains.


There are no reasons that speak against a VIA processor, or the use of the platform. Finally, the Isaiah core, which has underpinned the Nano, pick it up, thanks to its out-of-order architecture with no problems with any Intel Atom or AMD Neo, lagged only in the power of the old 65nm process for all times. The computing power of the CPU is only a factor when it comes to a small HTPC or a NetTop. Rather, values are like the graphics performance to accelerate video files, or the average power consumption. The new Nano X2 might make on the performance a good step forward, because even the old versions overclocked 65nm 1.6 GHz fast. This should probably soon the 2GHz mark to be broken at a low power consumption of only about 10 watts. So that the processor can also use the latest software enhancements, is of course the latest SSE4 on board, and the 64-bit capability of the Nano has X2.



In terms of high definition takes to master the nuclear camp far, the two compatible chipsets VX900 & VN1000 addition to the acceleration of HD content in 1080p and contemporary DirectX standards DirectX10.1 date. According to the press office of VIA's first product samples are already issued to OEMs, the first devices are based on the X2 Nano later this quarter.
