With the first Trinity APUs out of the way, we can look to the future and gather up whatever reports exist on the chips still unreleased.

As it happens, we didn't have to look in too many places for data on the Brazos 2.0. CPU World got a lead on them.

One of the chips, AMD E1-1200, is a 1.4 GHz entry-level dual-core CPU, while the E2-1800 has 1.7 GHz clock speed.

Both use the Bobcat micro-architecture and have ultra-low power consumption. June is when their release is set to occur.

After that, the A-Series desktop APU line will show up: dual-core A4 and A6 units, plus quad-core A8 and A10 processors. For overclockers, there will be both dual-core and quad-core models with unlocked multipliers.

Now we just have to see if reviewers will be more enthusiastic after putting them through their paces.
