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
Abstract: £126 (inc VAT) £110 (inc VAT)Our first exposure to AMD's new Kaveri APUs came, rather peculiarly, in the form of the as yet unreleased , as the top of the range A10 samples were in short supply. However, we've now got hold of both top end parts, the...
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? ...
AMD's new Kaveri APU is very interesting piece of hardware. It's the first processor to work according to the HSA principle, which means that the CPU and GPU work together as equals in an efficient manner. The downside of new technology is that very lit...
Before we talk a little about Kaveri, let's start with Gigabytes A88X which was the board powering all of the results in this review for the A10-7850K. Overall we were very impressed with this entry in the Sniper family. Each of the Intel boards we have ...
Abstract: Kaveri is AMD's first APU enabling HSA (Heterogeous System Architecture) features. Combining 4 steamroller cores at a clockspeed of 3.7GHz and 8 GPU compute units of the GCN architecture at 720MHz, this APU should be the most advanced APU ever made until...
High TDP consumption, Graphics performance not as good as it could be
If you're looking to build a PC for home use, or even a HTPC for your media-playing needs, the A10-7850K is definitely one to consider. It's affordable, yet powerful enough to do everything you need a home PC to do on a daily basis.(previously published ...
The retail price of the AMD A10-7850K (Kaveri) Black Edition retails at around USD 190 as seen on Newegg . It's cheaper than the Intel's Core i5 4670K by some 50 USD or so. In the Malaysian market, I foresee that it will be at the RM 600 price point whi...

By and large the AMD A10-7850K was able to deliver a pretty decent performance both in CPU-related tasks and in gaming, but it's on the latter where AMD's current flagship APU really shines thanks to the hardware/software tweaks, particularly HSA, that th...
