AMD C-50 APU dual cores 5W version

Yes you read it right , only 5W required for the Ontario APU to run like a charm on an Acer tablet, thats what AMD showed on a press event in Singapore leaked on Tech Report

Luckily, the folks at Softpedia seem to have figured it out. They say AMD managed to get its dual-core C-50 APU into a 5W power envelope by limiting the "number of frequencies and terminations" supported by the memory controller and by limiting I/O.

The result, apparently, is a 5W version of the AMD C-50 that still has two cores and, judging by this screenshot PC Watch grabbed, a 1GHz clock speed.
