AMD has released its latest Duron processor, running at 1.2GHz. The chip, based on AMD's Palomino core, supports a 200MHz frontside bus and contains 128KB of on-die L2 cache. AMD reckons that a system based on the 1.2GHz Duron and DDR memory yields "significantly" better 3D games performance than a PC with a 1.2GHz Celeron and single data rate SDRAM. Equally, it beats a 1.4GHz Pentium 4 plus SDRAM system at "office productivity and digital media" apps by 13 per cent.
