It looks as though ASUS unintentionally released information on the upcoming Radeon Mobility X2300 in a press released for the companys A8Jr notebook. Oops.
In the release, Asus claims that the X2300 is Windows Vista certified and supports the new Aero user interface, one of the main highlights of the operating system (OS). Asus states that the X2300 utilizes ATI's Hypermemory technology to reduce power consumption in notebooks, and that products based on the GPU deliver performance with current and future 3D-intensive applications and games.
bs....hypermemory technology is ATI's way of saying "it's slower, it uses PCI-Express to access system ram and treats as video card memory. but we are going to lie to the customers anyways by saying it reduces power consumption..."
Almost all the low end cards do that and it does reduce power so what's your point? It's a cheap basic product for laptops, it's not really intended to have any performance at all but run the apps if necessary.
