  • Reasonable CPU and capable GPU, Competitive pricing, Overclocks well
  • 100W TDP negates use in small systems
  • AMD's rollout of six second-generation APUs brings renewed focus to the constituent parts of any mainstream PC today. A good look at the A8-5600K chip reveals its can-do CPU core and above-average integrated graphics provide a good fit for an inexpensive...

  • With the big success of FM1 and the Llano platform, we were keen to see what AMD had done in terms of updating it to appeal more to the current market who crave speed, performance and an all-in-one solution. Now we said in the beginning that you won't nor...

  • Discrete class integrated graphics, Overclocking potential on CPU + GPU, AMD HD Media Acceleration
  • Can be out performed by predecessor
  • When comparing the A8-5600K to the previous generation, there are some new worthwhile features, such as Eyefinity and the AMD HD Media Accelerator. There are vast improvements that can be seen, especially in the CPU core scaling and memory bandwidth a...

  • Abstract:  We've been playing with AMD's Trinity APUs for four months, and they're just now being rolled out to the channel. This time, we take a look at the architecture's efficiency compared to a pair of Ivy Bridge-based Core i3s. Can A10 and A8 stand up to Int...

  • Abstract:  Think you're pretty snazzy because your integrated graphics core plays mainstream games at 1280x720? We're on to bigger and better things, like modern titles at 1920x1080. Can AMD's Trinity architecture push high-enough frame rates to make this possibl...

  • Abstract:  Desktop-bound Trinity APUs are shipping to OEMs, but they won't show up in the channel for months. Nevertheless, we got our hands on three upcoming models. How does Piledriver fare? What about VLIW4 graphics? Does memory play a big role? We answer with...

  • Gran potencia Gráfica, que nos permitirá jugar a un amplio numero de videojuegos, Perfecto para uso doméstico, Reproduce HD 1080P sin problema alguno, Precio muy competitivo, Menor consumo en IDLE y menor calentamiento, Posibilidad de Overclocking
  • 100 watios son demasiado para los tiempos que corren, El socket FM2 debería ser compatible con el FM1, Esperábamos mas diferencia con la generación anterior
  • Teníamos ganas de analizar la nueva hornada de procesador de AMD y la verdad que nos ha dejado un buen sabor de boca. Quizás esperábamos algo mas de rendimiento, pero la mejora en el consumo y la temperatura son puntos muy positivos; pero vayamos paso a p...
