Sorry for posting this question here - just don't know to which StackExchange website i should be writing.
I've heard AMD created processors with video card bundled. So now these processors should work as fast as just usual processors with discrete video card but AMD's ones should use less power and spread less warm.
Some googling around gave me the result like "AMD processors of A-series". They were mentioned to be build using that technology i described above.
But on the other hand, we have a small rate of publishing and not-very-good quality of AMD drivers.
I am a game-developer and web-developer so i need a powerful processor and graphics card and a lot of RAM on board (to make it possible to create a sample Grails application, for example or to create some 3D models in Maya/Cinema4D, for instance). Still i want my battery to be a long-living one, so power usage is a bit critical for me.
So, my questions are:
are there any processor building technology like i've described and which series they are (if they exist)?
which processor shall fit the laptop the best: AMD one or i5/i7 on with nVidia graphics card for the purposes mentioned above?
