Abstract
Carrizo is AMD's sixth-generation accelerated processing unit (APU), optimized to deliver performance uplifts and battery-life improvements in thinner and lighter notebook platforms. Its primary goals are to deliver a differentiated gaming and multimedia experience to the end user and to make progress toward AMD's goal of improving energy efficiency in its APUs by 25 times by year 2020. This article describes the new features, low-power architecture, and power management algorithms used to achieve these goals. Carrizo delivered a 63 percent increase in the 3DMark11 benchmark score, a 350 percent increase in video transcoding throughput, a 60 percent reduction in full-screen HD video playback power, and a 50 percent reduction in Windows idle power compared to its predecessor, the Kaveri APU.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
