Mainly interested in what it means for AMD (presumably good things for their profitability?), since the CPU and GPU are on the same die and manufactured by AMD. Otherwise, it'll be a bit more powerful than most PCs for a bit, then spend a long time being less powerful.
More like "not actually turning off, just playing at it". Bad for power use, good for impatient users. The amount of memory in the system has nothing to do with it.
You must not be reading very good sources, since it is indeed 8-core (and manufactured by AMD, as I noted above).
