AMD basically need to make all their processors APU's, considering that is basically what Intel have done. Originally it wasn't worthwhile since you most likely have a discrete graphics card rendering the integrated GPU pointless, but now you have Lucid MVP that can make use of the integrated graphics with a discrete card it is something AMD will have to consider, and sooner rather than later.

Hmm that chart has to be wrong in Cores / Threads
A6 should be 2 / 2 = Cores / Threads
A8 and A10 should be 4 / 4 = Cores / Threads

Its AMD modules so..

1 Modules = 2 threads
2 Modules = 4 threads
4 Modules = 8 threads

The meaning to core processor is a single computing component with two or more actual central processing units (called "cores") which make no diff if it one independent cpu or dual or ever quad modules.
1 Modules with 2 CPU Per-Modules = 2 Threads x 2 Modules = 4 CPU with 4 Threads so as I said the A8 and A10 should be 4 / 4 = Cores / Threads
