The two-watt Atom chip inside the Series 5 is rated for about nine hours of battery life, whereas the Core i5-powered Series 7 is expected to last between four and five hours on a charge. (The Series 5 is lighter, too, at 1.65 pounds, compared with 1.89 for the Series 7.) And, being a lower-powered device, the Series 5 has no vents.
The company got a jump on graphics chip rivals over the summer with a new series of graphics processors that have won strong reviews and grabbed market share from Nvidia, one of the chip industry's toughest competitors.
As it turns out, it runs a quad-core version of AMD's new Temash chip, which is being billed as the first quad-core, x86-based SoC. (There's also a dual-core version.) Built into the chip is an HD Radeon 8000 series GPU with AMD's Graphics Core Next architecture, so in theory you should be able to pull off PC-caliber gaming even on a tablet.

Play was very scrappy for the first 10 minutes of the second half but France eventually managed to put together a series of phases and Jauzion read Yachvili's chip from the base of a ruck beautifully to collect and dot down untouched.
Instead, the transistor is built up as a series of layers, deposited one at a time on the chip a process that allows the thickness of each layer to be controlled very accurately.
Next to the new 8.5mm-thick Infinity Series (essentially, the TF700T with an LTE radio and optional Snapdragon S4 chip), the 9.9mm 300 feels thick and weighty -- to the extent that any of ASUS' Prime tablets are really chunky.
One part of the campaign is a series of rolling deadlines, which extend through 2017, to further encourage the use of chip-based cards.
