"Keep in mind, that such solution will ALWAYS be LOW-END, be-
cause if the CPU burns 65W as one example, with how much more
heat could the package work -> a reasonable simple guess
should be additional 60-70W, which would bring the "one package" in the 120-130W range with 2 DIEs. What do you do, if the GPU
will change -> new layouts? "

Not necessarily. Rumor has it the next generation ATI parts will be modular. So, low end graphics will be a couple of cores and the higher end graphics will be more, which may or may not be on the same chip. If Fusion uses one of those cores, then, at least in principle, better graphics performance can be achieved by adding another chip or two.

Fusion is supposed to be aimed at the mobile market, at least at first. It makes more sense there, any way.
