Good Temperatures
Improved Video Performance
Unlocked
Low Power Consumption
1080p Gaming On Low settings With No Discrete GPU
Up to Date DualGraphics Configura
Integrated graphics can handle most games at 1080p and medium settings
Unlocked for overclocking
Offers the best integrated GPU performance on any platform to date. Supports AMD's Mantle API
And heterogeneous system architecture (HSA).Better CPU efficiency than previous AMD APUs.
The editors didn't like
Only a Small Improvement On Some CPU Intense Workloads
Single Thread Performance Stagnant
Much higher TDP than comparable Intel CPUs
Fastest possible RAM required for best gaming performance
CPU performance still lags behind the competition
HSA support currently limited
Total CPU performance isn't dramatically better than the chip it replaces. Intel cores still offer better CPU performance for the money

low overclocking ability
Tweet Value and conclusionAs you can see, AMD Kaveri is not the beast some might expect. Actually, in some cases, the Steamroller cores are a bit slower than the Piledriver we've seen in the A10-6800K, which runs at higher frequency. Also, there is the is...

We have seen some pretty lofty predictions on what kind of performance increase Battlefield 4 would receive from Mantle. On the discrete GPU side of things, if you are using an R9 290X with a slower CPU, you will probably see the best gains possible. For...

If you have been looking for how overclocking all three main components of a Kaveri APU system – CPU, GPU, and Memory – affects performance, here you go. We saw some nice performance increases across the board, ranging from 13% to 20%...

Update : This is a “pure CPU” overclocking article, and only looks at CPU performance – gaming tests are done with a dedicated video card. If you are wondering how Kaveri performs when overclocked fully – CPU at 4.7 GHz and GPU at 1020 MHz, check out this...
AMD certainly improved the performance level of their APUs with the Kaveri release. You have to tip your hat to them for leading the way into the realm of heterogeneous computing. While it's true software developers will have to adopt HSA for us to see ...

Abstract: We've spent the days following CES benchmarking two of AMD's new Kaveri-based APUs. Do the Steamroller x86 architecture, GCN graphics design, and HSA-oriented features impress, or do they come up short against Intel's value-oriented Haswell-based parts? ...
Abstract: The latest benchmarks of the AMD A10-7850K APU to share on Phoronix and to complement yesterday's Windows vs. Linux OpenGL comparison are benchmarks of the APU's Radeon R7 Graphics compared to numerous AMD Radeon and NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards.For this...

AMD’s pursuit of combined computing is really starting to show results with Kaveri. While some of the results we have seen that make use of OpenCL are a sort of ‘best case scenario’, they are real world results, from real applications that real people use. The incl...

In a vacuum where all that's available are other AMD parts, Kaveri and its Steamroller cores actually look pretty good. At identical frequencies there's a healthy increase in IPC, and AMD has worked very hard to move its Bulldozer family down to a substan...
Abstract: AMD’s Kaveri is finally here and we look at the A10-7850K & A8-7600. With IPC improvements, Steamroller x86 cores and a GCN-based graphics processor, this may be the one we’ve been waiting for....
