The editors liked
CPU and graphics both (slightly) improved
Compatible with existing FM2-socket motherboards
AMD adds support for DDR3-2133
Nudges performance higher.
Great overclocking ability
Native 2133MHz memory support
Continued FM2 based socket
Beats comparatively priced Intel CPUs
Integrated GPU Overclocked well
AMD Overdrive was very easy to use
No Need to get a New Motherboard
Amazing overclocking
Excellent and affordable entry-level 3D rendering power
Decent iGPU clocking
Low platform price
Piledriver CPU core design
Support for up to two VGAs in CrossfireX with supported board products
Support for 3+1 Eyefinity display
The editors didn't like
Much less power-efficient than comparable Intel processors
Only a minor performance boost over A10-5800K
Bottom Line
AMD's Richland APUs boost clock speeds and refine power consumption. In particular
The AMD A10-6800K is a decent
Low-cost alternative to Intel's Core i3/i5 products
None
Performance over Trinity doesn't Justify Pricing
Same maximum TDP as earlier FM2 products
Perhaps a bit late to the market
With laptop-grade parts already being for sale
Not a true new technology—just clock bumps
"Low" but adequate CPU Performance will not appeal to some
Well, the Ryzen 7 launch has a surprising amount of excitement and drama mixed together with the impressive numbers but with memory issues and game performance causing very polarized opinions on social media and on websites like Reddit. AMD fans even...
Abstract: After testing two of the most inexpensive processors for desktop computers (A6-6400K and the Pentium G3220), it is time for us to test two mainstream models for the same platforms: the A10-6800K and the Core i3-4150. Let's see which one is the best pick.B...

AMD has just expanded its product range on the market today APU AMD Trinity. Indeed, APU AMD Richland built on the same process technology, use the same number of transistors on the same microarchitecture that we have seen in their predecessors. Perform...
Abstract: In 2011, AMD released their first APU architecture codenamed “Llano” which was eventually followed by its successor “Trinity” in 2012. The Trinity APUs were met with a positive response by consumers due to the value they offered.Additionally and over the ...
Abstract: HOT! – We're Giving Away a Rosewill Throne Full Tower Chassis! (Ends July 21st, 2013) - ENTER NOW! The introduction of the original AMD FM1 APU (codenamed Llano) was an innovation because, for the first time, a CPU maker treated the on-die GPU as an im...
Abstract: A follow up to Trinity, AMD's Richland APU architecture utilizes an intelligent power management system to hit higher clock speeds without increasing power consumption.
Abstract: For those that have been wondering about AMD Richland APUs, hopefully this article provides some guidance on the CPU side. The Radeon graphics testing will be coming up in another Phoronix article for both the open-source and closed-source Catalyst ...
We last talked about AMD's A10-6800K when we were testing completely stock settings and even then we were massively impressed. When compared to its main competition, the Intel i3-3220, it matched the CPU performance in most cases whilst completely destroy...
