A shop in Taiwan has been shutdown for producing fake AMD processor chips. Investigators discovered that the warehouse falsely labeled an estimated 1 million processors with AMD stickers. News of these fake chips has curbed the hype surrounding AMD's announcement of their new Alchemy processor.
According to InternetNews.com, these counterfeit chips were to be shipped to markets in South Asia. Chips bound for Germany were also discovered.
The Alchemy chip is designed for portable media players and supports such media formats like MPEG2, MPEG4, and DivX, to name a few. The new Alchemy architecture will allow portable items to connect directly to DVR/TiVo recorders, so that files can be transferred without the using PCs as a bridge.
AMD indicated that Alchemy assists their growing partnership with TiVo's new service, TiVo To Go.
