About Hardware AMD C-60
Released in 2011, the AMD C-60 is a power-efficient processor that belongs to the Ontario series based on the Bobcat architecture. With 2 cores and 2 threads, and a base clock speed of 1.0 GHz (can increase to 1.33 GHz with Turbo Core), this CPU is targeted at netbooks and portable devices with low power requirements.
The C-60 has a TDP of only 9W, making it suitable for ultra-portable laptops that prioritize battery life. The processor also comes with an AMD Radeon HD 6290 integrated GPU, which has 80 shader cores and supports DirectX 11, providing basic graphics performance for video playback and light gaming.
However, the C-60's performance is limited to light tasks such as browsing and office applications. Its low clock speed and power-saving architecture make it less suitable for heavy multitasking or applications that require high computing power.
