I'm not sure what you mean by "full-chips". The Fusion chips are
nothing more than a STARS core with no L3 and reduced L2, strapped to a
Radeon die. All it does is cost more, consume more power, and perform
slightly worse than a comparably clocked Athlon II. If you're not going
to use the integrated graphics, don't buy one.
