"The "current best-in-class Intel Atom-based tablet" (Clover Trail) was pitted against a tablet with the upcoming (and completely redesigned) quad-core Silvermont Atom (aka, "Bay Trail") packing a new "video encoder and decoder."

On Tuesday, Intel said Silvermont will offer 2X the CPU (central processing unit) and 3X the GPU (graphics processing unit) performance of the current Atom technology in the market.
Silvermont will "enable sleek designs with eight or more hours of battery life and weeks of standby, as well as support Android and Windows 8.1," Intel said."
