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
We've been talking about the Kaveri technology in this A10-7850K for a long time now – about the promise of those new Steamroller cores, the addition of Graphics Core Next GPU cores, and the still rather intangible benefits of the heterogeneous system arc...
Abstract: That the fastest processors are currently made by Intel is not really a secret, but what is the best choice when you want to spend up to £ 50, £100 or £150? To answer that question we conducted a megatest of 57 current AMD and Intel CPUs. From two to...

Abstract: P utting together a new system tends to begin with selecting a the processor that fits your budget best, narrowing down make, performance and price until you have the one you need. What are the best CPUs on the market right now, though? The industry evolv...

Excellent developer potential, Radeon R7 Graphics based on GCN The best integrated graphics available, Excellent all round user experience with OpenCL, Competent gaming out the box, Improved power efficiency, Integrated DSP (TrueAudio), 28nm Fabrication,
Little CPU performance gain over previous generation APUs
In our testing it was clear to see that in the traditional sense, the CPU side of things does seem to struggle, coming with comparable performance out the box to predecessors, there isn't much to shout about. However, it is not that the CPU has not been i...

AMD's Kaveri A10-7850K is a solid overclocker. While we settled at 1028MHz on the GPU we were able to go another divider higher with slight bumps in voltage and the enthusiastic overclocker might even be able to go a couple more dividers up into the 1100-...
Solid GPU compute and gaming scaling, 2133MHz is a relatively affordable sweet spot
Negligible impact on CPU performance, Slightly raised performance,
The conclusions from the memory scaling tests are quite simple and obvious. Memory scaling makes a dramatic difference to Kaveri's performance in GPU-intensive applications because it increases the GPU memory frequency and reduces the memory bottleneck. I...
Abstract: If you follow our website and the technology industry more broadly then you may have heard a lot about Kaveri since it was officially launched on January 14th 2014. Kaveri is the codename for AMD's fourth generation of desktop APU (Accelerated Processing ...
Abstract: Kaveri represents another significant step forward for integrated graphics performance but realistically it still isn't even on the same playing field as true discrete graphics solutions which aren't as limited by memory bandwidth or physical space. Howev...
Bestever APU, Fastest integrated graphics, Primed for generalpurpose compute
Feels expensive, Requires new FM2motherboard, CPU core performance not a match for Intel
AMD's A10-7850K represents the very best APU of this generation. Design decisions taken years ago mean that while the architecture of the CPU and GPU components is arguably better than last-generation Richland (A10-6800K), this new Kaveri APU is not cloc...
