AMD Trinity successor is Piledriver-based

A new 2013 AMD desktop roadmap slide that reveals that Trinity's successor, codenamed Richland, will share the same Piledriver core. We already knew that Richland would have the same Socket FM2, and now we also know that the chip won't be a massive change as it's still based on the same core. You can expect enhanced graphics and some HSA improvements.

An intresting choice as we all hoped for a faster architecture.

Why have they listed the Radeon GPU's under the 'Vishera' CPU?

If you notice, it's referring to their discrete platform, not the CPU itself.
