nvidia ion 2(I think you can fix the cap)
On March 2, 2010, the second generation platform, called ION 2, was released. The platform includes the second-generation Intel Atom processors on the Pineview core, a discrete NVIDIA GT218 chip, and the NM10 chipset, which acts as a south bridge. The ION 2-based netbook combines an Atom N450 / 470 processor (now an Intel Atom D525 processor with two cores and a frequency of 1.8 GHz) with an integrated graphics core, Intel NM10 chipset, GT218 discrete graphics core and a DDR3 memory buffer dedicated to the needs of the graphics subsystem The volume of which can reach 512 MB. The video chip is connected to the chipset via the PCI Express 1.1 bus, whose throughput can vary from x1 (250 MB / s) to x4 (1 GB / s).
The GT218 graphics core within the ION 2 platform can have 8 or 16 stream processors, depending on the application. So, in netbooks with a screen diagonal size of no more than 10.1 inches, the graphic core will have 8 stream processors at a frequency of 405 MHz (6 W), and in larger netbooks and nettops their number will be 16 and the frequency will be 475 MHz (12 W) and 535 MHz, respectively. The GT218 chip is available in 40nm technology and supports DirectX 10.1. Provides hardware decoding of high-definition video in resolutions up to 1080p. Netbooks based on ION 2 can be equipped with a screen with support for 1366x768 pixels. To work with high resolutions, when connecting to the HDMI port, you will have to power the netbook from the network, since only the GT218 video chip can handle such work, and when working on battery power, it usually turns off to save power.
The ION 2 platform is compatible with NVIDIA Optimus technology, which increases the battery life of the PC from the battery, which is achieved by automatically switching between the integrated Intel graphics controller (usually Intel GMA 3150) and the discrete video adapter. Due to the limitations imposed by Optimus technology, netbooks based on ION 2 can only use the Windows 7 operating system — not only in the Starter version, but also in the Home Premium version. [1]
