Asus Incorporates Nvidia ION into Eee PCs

19 Nov, 2009, 3:13 pm IST | by Shayne Rana | Netbooks

Asus has just adopted Nvidia ION graphics for many of its top-selling “Eee” netbooks and nettop PCs. The Nvidia ION graphics processor is designed to transform low-power PCs into versatile media and entertainment centers that support stutter-free HD video, games and video editing. ION delivers up to 10x faster graphics performance than comparable systems with Intel integrated graphics.
 
All of the Nvidia ION-based PCs and motherboards from ASUS fully support Windows 7, which takes advantage of graphics processors to accelerate a variety of applications, freeing the CPU to handle other tasks.
 
The new ASUS products include:
  • ASUS Eee PC 1201N.
  • ASUS EeeTop PC ET2002T
  • ASUS EeeBox PC EB1012
  • ASUS EeeBox PC EB1501
  • ASUS AT3N7A-I
Jeff Fisher, senior vice president of the GeForce and ION business units at NVIDIA said, “ASUS has energized an entire line of netbooks and nettops with our NVIDIA ION GPU. High definition media, great gaming, and Windows 7 – with these PCs consumers can truly have it all.”


“Our new ION-powered Eee PCs will redefine netbook and nettop performance,”
said Jerry Shen, CEO of ASUSTeK Computer Inc. “They deliver an outstanding HD experience that isn’t possible with today’s basic integrated graphics.”
 
ION graphics deliver a premium experience in small, low-powered PCs with support for:
  • All versions of Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7
  • Outstanding HD video including 1080p and Blu-ray
  • Smooth streaming video with the upcoming Flash Player 10.1
  • Digital connectivity to an external monitor via HDMI
  • Mainstream games including Spore, The Sims, UP, and LEGO games
  • Hardware acceleration for NVIDIA CUDA architecture-based applications such as vReveal, Badaboom, Arcsoft Total Media Theater, and Super LoiLoscope
  • 24-bit 8-channel LPCM uncompressed audio through HDMI
