We ride together we die together Rogues for life.
All Atom processors are underpowered, that's the point. Even the dual core ones are sloooowwww. They sacrifice performance for low power consumption and longer battery life.godpigeon wrote:Depends on the version of the atom how underpowered it would be, but they're talking it'll replace the keyboard of your PC for the higher requirements games out there.
The Atom D510 is probably the best one currently available. There is the D525 but I haven't seen it anywhere. This processor is slower than the slowest currently available Celeron processor (budget desktop cpu). It's MAYBE the same speed as the CPU I have in my 10 year old Laptop, an Athlon XP 1800+. That laptop was capable of running Vanilla WoW (barely, at about 5-10fps) but can not run it anymore.
Just go here for benchmarks. Scroll to the very bottom for all Atom CPUs:

My problem is that I have more buttons on my action bars than they have keys on their keyboard.
I can just see myself in a raid frantically searching for a button that's been mapped to, say, the > key. Or trying to read tiiiiiiiny print on its little screen.
Kilt: "WTF? No heals?"
