AMD Launches World's First Mobile DirectX 11 GPUs

Posted by kdawson on Thursday January 7, 2010 @08:20AM from the forty-nm-of-fast dept.

J. Dzhugashvili writes "Less than 4 months after releasing the first DX11 desktop graphics card, AMD has followed up with a whole lineup of mobile graphics processors based on the same architecture. The new Mobility Radeon HD 5000 lineup includes four different series of GPUs designed to serve everything from high-end gaming notebooks to mainstream thin-and-light systems. AMD has based these processors on the same silicon chips as its desktop Radeon HD 5000-series graphics cards, so performance shouldn't disappoint. The company also intends to follow Nvidia's lead by offering notebook graphics drivers directly from its website, as opposed to relying on laptop vendors to provide updates."

Ok - so that's minesweeper and hearts... what's the third? Seriously though - I don't even have those games on my work computers. I'm more interested to know if they work well with my software, or matlab and so forth. There are other uses for computers.
