About Hardware AMD E1-1200

Released in 2012 as part of the Brazos 2.0 family, the AMD E1-1200 is a power-efficient processor aimed at entry-level laptops. It has a 2 core and 2 thread configuration with a fixed clock speed of 1.4 GHz, with no support for Turbo Core technology. Built with a 40nm fabrication process, the E1-1200 has a TDP value of 18 watts-efficient enough for portable devices that emphasize low power consumption and longer battery life. Despite its limited performance, the E1-1200 was a popular choice in its day thanks to its affordable price and ability to handle light computing needs.

One of the main advantages of the AMD E1-1200 is the integrated Radeon HD 7310 GPU, which offers better graphics performance than Intel's entry-level graphics solutions at the time. This GPU has the ability to play HD resolution videos smoothly, as well as run light games such as Counter Strike 1.6, Plants vs Zombies, or other casual games with minimum graphics settings. That said, this combination of CPU and GPU is not intended for heavy-duty work such as video editing, 3D rendering, or modern gaming. Overall performance is more optimal when used for tasks such as browsing, streaming videos, accessing social media, typing documents, as well as basic office applications.

However, it should be noted that the AMD E1-1200 is less suitable for heavy multitasking, especially in modern operating systems like Windows 10. With a low clock speed and no Boost feature, users may experience lag or limitations when opening multiple applications at once. In tests using the HP 1000 1b05au laptop, this processor was paired with 4GB DDR3 single channel RAM (2 DIMM slots) and tested on Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 operating systems. The results show that the most optimal performance is achieved on Windows 7 or Windows 8, while in Windows 10 the system tends to be slow although it can still be used for basic needs. As such, the AMD E1-1200 can still be relied upon as a power-efficient and inexpensive solution for users with very light computing needs.

About Hardware Amlogic S905X-BV

The Amlogic S905X is a popular ARM-based System-on-Chip (SoC) designed primarily for Android TV boxes and media streaming devices. Released in 2016, this chipset offers a balance of performance and efficiency for home entertainment setups, especially for users who need affordable hardware capable of smooth video playback up to 4K resolution.

The S905X features a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU, clocked at up to 1.5 GHz, paired with a Mali-450 MP3 GPU for graphics processing. While this configuration isn’t suitable for heavy gaming or demanding multitasking, it is more than sufficient for tasks like streaming video, running lightweight Android apps, and operating smart TV interfaces.

Built using a 28nm process, the Amlogic S905X offers good thermal and power efficiency for always-on devices. One of the key strengths of the S905X is its hardware video decoding support, including H.265 (HEVC), VP9, and HDR10, making it ideal for high-resolution video playback with low CPU usage.

The chip also supports HDMI 2.0a, USB 2.0, and eMMC 5.0/5.1 storage, which are common in Android-based TV boxes. However, its performance is somewhat limited for tasks outside of video consumption, such as emulation or productivity, due to the modest clock speeds and older GPU architecture.
