So the beloved Eee PC line is being updated. One of the SeaShell line netbook 1015 will be replaced with 1015BX, and features the AMD C-60 CPU. The device still retains the 10-inch chassis as well as the 1024×600 screen resolution, 1 GB of RAM and a 320GB Hard drive.
The C-60 is a slight upgrade to the single core C-50. The 1.33 GHZ C-60 os a low power chip with a TDP of 9 Watts and has Radeon HD 6250 integrated, clocked at 276-400 MHz.
The new processor is going to offer at least a bit of performance boost, of course, it won't run like the Core i Series of Intel. Comparing it to Atom however, the C-60 is superior in terms of HD video playback and DirectX 11 graphics. The Atom chips offer HD playback but only for the dual-core versions. This netbook is available in Germany for 206 Euros (277USD).
