Super low power consumption AMD dual-core platform

Super low power consumption AMD dual-core platformEnergy savings is big business, especially in big businesses where the power bills for feeding hundreds of power hungry machines can be mind boggling.
AMD have had a great emphasis on how much power their processors can save, but this has mostly been aimed at the server market. These kinds of power saving are now available to the consumer market with the EE range of energy effiecient dual-core processors.
The biggest power savings come with the “Energy Efficient Small Form Factor” EE and SFF model which uses a pretty low 54W at idle. This is quite a saving compared to the Intel rivals, but might not be enough warrant it.
Perfect for use in home theater systems though and small form factor boxes where cooling is a very sensitive issue.
