Fans of Intel chips and ATI graphics cards have gotten a bit of an early Christmas as a leak from HP has confirmed that a low-end Core series chip is coming from Intel and that a mid-range ATI graphics card are coming in 2010 (and also coming in new HP computers in 2010, obviously).

Leaked HP PowerPoint slides on their 2010 computer lineup reveal information on upcoming hardware from ATI and Intel. HP will start offering their Pavilion desktops with a choice between the already released Radeon HD 5570, or a new lower-end Radeon HD 5350, which will sport 1GB of VRAM, and HDMI, DVI and VGA ports.

Upcoming Pavilions will have a choice between the Clarkdale-based Core i5-6xx series, which was previously released but unannounced, and the new Core i3-5xx, which will also use Clarkdale chips. Intel had previously announced the name of the Core i3 chip, but no other information (like that it would use Clarkdale) had come out.

These new HP computers (and, by extension, the hardware inside of them) is scheduled to come out in early 2010. No pricing information or exact release dates came out about the computers or the hardware.
