The Intel Atom N2800 is a dual core entry level processor for netbooks and tablets. It came up on Ark Intel website in December 2011 and features a PowerVR SGX545 integrated graphics at 640MHz and a video decoding engine for MPEG4 Part2, VC-1, WMV9, and H.264. Furthermore, the chip now also supports DisplayPort 1.1 and HDMI 1.3a outputs.
The processor core should be still similar to the old Atom processors. Therefore the CPU performance of the N2800 is comparable to an older Atom D525. But the GPU is supposed to be 3 times more capable than Intel GMA 3150 used in earlier Atom processors (Atom N450).
The integrated 64bit Single-Channel DDR3-800/1067 memory controller supports two SODIMMS and a maximum of 4 GB RAM. Netbooks featuring Atom N2600 and Atom N2800 will be available in January 2012.
