The VIA Eden X2 is a microprocessor from VIA Technologies . It was unveiled on March 1, 2011. Like its predecessors, the Via Eden X2 processor was mainly developed for industrial use and made available to OEMs . It is used in mostly fanless, very compact NetTop boxes from HP and other manufacturers.

technology

The Isaiah architecture of the Nano has been completely redeveloped by VIA's subsidiary Centaur Technology . The goal was to significantly exceed the computing power of the C7 while keeping the power consumption as low as possible. In order to make it easier for hardware manufacturers to switch from VIA C7 to VIA Nano, the new processor is pin- compatible with the old 479-pin infrastructure . It is offered in the NanoBGA2.

Benchmarks

In terms of its CPU mark performance, the Via processor is comparable to the first Intel Atom dual-core generation. It delivers the same single thread performance as an Intel Atom N570 with the same power consumption, but overall it does slightly worse, not least because of the lower processor clock rate of the Via Eden X2.

future

For the end of 2009 VIA aimed to change the structure width from 65 nm to 45 nm. With this processor, the step was successful. Quad-core processors have also been announced for the coming years.
