Chipzilla is licensing AMD's graphics

Our original story about Intel licensing AMD graphics created quite an impact, horror and disbelief from Intel, AMD and Nvidia types. .

First, we need to make something clear to our non-regular readers. Our sources are well placed, industry insiders and we would not run the story if we did not trust them. Fudzilla made a career about being first with many announcements.

This time, we cannot take the credit as it was our distinguished college Kyle Benet who broke the news and we just followed his lead. Intel declined to comment and we are waiting to hear back from AMD.

After digging a bit deeper, it seems that the Intel and AMD deal will include Intel CPUs using Radeon graphics. You can think of this as a fusion of CPU and GPU cores, or an Intel integrated CPU with better AMD powered graphics. The first products should resurface before the end of the year. It is natural that Intel will deny it all for the moment. In fact it will probably deny it until the day it launches such a product. This is a standard procedure.
