AMD R-Series APU Powers Samsung Electronics Digital Signage Systems
AMD today announced that the AMD Embedded R-Series accelerated processing unit (APU), previously codenamed "Bald Eagle," is powering the latest set-back-box (SBB) digital media players from Samsung Electronics, Co., Ltd. With high performance, low power, and broad connectivity.
The new Samsung SBB-B64DV4 is an ideal fit for demanding signage applications that transform Samsung SMART Signage Displays into inclusive digital tools for a wide range of business needs.
Using AMD's Embedded R-Series APUs, Samsung SBB media players for digital signage deliver breakthrough HD graphics performance and support multi-video stream capabilities up to two displays, all in a power efficient and ultra-compact form factor.
"Digital signage is a key vertical for the AMD Embedded business," said Scott Aylor, corporate vice president and general manager, AMD Embedded Solutions. "The AMD Embedded R-Series APU enables leading digital signage providers to harness high levels of compute and graphics performance within a low-power design envelope. AMD Embedded Solutions help designers at Samsung achieve aggressive form factor goals and drive down system costs while providing the rich multimedia their digital signage customers' demand."
The AMD Embedded RX-425BB APU combines a high performance x86 CPU with an integrated, discrete-class AMD Radeon R6 graphics processing unit (GPU) in a low-power configuration to minimize heat dissipation constraints and meet demanding energy efficiency requirements. The processor utilizes AMD's latest Graphics Core Next (GCN) architecture, created for advanced graphics applications and parallel processing capabilities.

AMD wake up !!!
I agree. Amd must go with more cores if wanna stay at least close to intel. I never like intel,but in this time is much faster clock per clock for amd. Amd bring as 16 or 32 core cpu without stupid apu!!! Clear cpu with at least 16 cores, and 16mb cashe.....

16 or 32 core CPU is a bit wishful, and least for now. Wait for ZEN
, that is expected to have up to 8 full cores.
A new feature of DirectX 12 (and OpenGL Vulkan too I believe), is the ability to share workloads across different GPU's, not just those in SLI or Crossfire. What this means is, even if you did have and APU and a GTX 1080 (or whatever Nvidia's next high end CPU will be called), you will still get higher frame rates than the same APU and graphics card but with the onboard graphics disabled.
Additionally, AMD is said to have been working on distributing this workload even better between and AMD APU and a discrete AMD card. When AMD Zen comes out, the APU is expected to benefit from possibly having on-die HBM memory, although this is more likely come later on.
Basically, under Windwows 10, a top of the range 8 full core APU with onboard graphics would be a very attractive preposition, if it isn't overly expensive, even if the physical die size is a bit larger than today's APU's. That will only be known when the dimensions of the FM3 socket is confirmed.

I wonder how automatic "Tile Based Rendering" will be under DX12.
I still hope more for 1024~1280 SP APU SoC which would just replace entire system.
You know, entire PC at size of graphics card + bit of space for PSU/HDD. Great for notebooks.
AMD has ability to turn this into reality.

Sure. But will se on dx 12 it will be true performance benefit that all talking about or will be yust another brick in the wall..... I meen ,playstation 3 push games smothly and pc of that time monster* class berly playable that in this time shows errors and i quess somone politics about selling expensive hardvare to naive richboys.....They manage to do that but that is robery.... I dont know when win 10 will arrive - that will bring us a litlle light in that dark wich we need it to stay compare to modern consoles..... Anyway,time will tell... Win 10 and dx12 .....that s golden spot....?

And AMD-ATi continues to roll in the design wins...Good to see. Now, if the company can just get its x86 cpu designs back on track...(Although the company's 3-4 year old Vishera 6-8 core cpus compete very nicely with Intel's current i5 lineup, imo.) AMD needs to retake the high end, or at least get to general parity there...
