Note if they are correct, it will also be using ARM graphics, Mali.


?!! I'd have thought they would be much more likely to use Imagination's graphics which already have x86 drivers and which would also be all ready to stick into a SoC like that.

Ouch, at 1GHz even Silvermont will only be on par with ~1.5GHz ARM A9 cores.

At first I thought that was the Base clock and Turbo exists for higher, but then I read this:

Intel estimates that SoFIA 3G SoCs will be 2.5 times slower in single-threaded CPU intensive tasks, and more than 3 times slower in multi-threaded tasks than the Z3735D. SoFIA 3G graphics performance is also going to be more than 3 times slower.



Z3735D wasn't exactly blazing.
