The editors liked
Optimised TDP ideal for compact PCs
Almost as quick as A107850K
Bestinclass IGP performance
Cheap supporting motherboards
Primed for GPGPU computing
Maintains strong GPU performance in 65 and 45W modes
Retains all the features of the A10-7850K flagship
Pricing is competitive relative to the A10-7850K
Part of game bundle program
Good performance when the workload favours HSA
Impressive Radeon R7 graphics
Keen pricing
Support for DDR32133MHz memory
The 65W TDP allows you to keep the A107800 cool whilst keeping the system nice and quiet
The editors didn't like
CPU core performance not a match for Intel
GPGPUoptimised programs thin on the ground
CPU performance takes a hit to lower TDP
Power consumption isn't as good as it should be given the TDP claims
Doesn't offer anything that is strictly new
Pricing is dubious relative to the A8-7600
Applications that can use GPU compute are still sparse
The 45W TDP looks good on paper but isn't much use in reality
Default 65W TDP means you are obliged to use a small tower or cube case
Intel still rules the roost with its Core i3 and Core i5 CPUs

Is this just another APU from AMD? Not quite. The A10-7800 has a different purpose than the flagship -7850K, and that's good news. AMD found the right spot between moderate performance and modest power consumption. As a result, the A10-7800 is a winner if...
Well this proved to be an interesting review. I had to fairly quickly run the A10-7800 Kaveri through the benchmarks in order to get this review out as close to its release date as I could; I didn't receive our review sample until 3 days before release! A...
Abstract: At the end of July AMD launched new Kaveri APU models: the A10-7800, A8-7600, and A6-7400K. AMD graciously sent over review samples on their A10-7800 and A6-7400K Kaveri APUs, which we've been benchmarking and have some of the initial Linux performance re...
HSAenabled APU, Most (if not more!) of the performance of the stock A107850K for less, Configurable TDPs (65W/45W), Fullyfeatured GCN graphics cores (TrueAudio, Mantle, etc.), Compute capable graphics, Focus on efficiency is noticeable, Integrated GPU is
Pure CPU performance, while “good enough” for intended application, still lacking compared to Intel, Software needs to catch up to unlock full potential, Not for enthusiasts – narrow range of use, even if within that range there isn't anything comparable
I think the attribute that surprised me the most while reviewing the A10-7800 was its proficiency at its stock settings – especially when compared to the “first Kaveri,” the A10-7850K. I enjoy the process of overclocking and finding the limits of componen...
Abstract: This refresh deals with fleshing out the rest of the Kaveri lineup with products that address different TDPs, markets, and prices. The A10-7850K is still the king when it comes to performance on the FM2+ socket (as long as users do not pay attention to th...
Much like the A10-7850K, once I finished testing the A10-7800 I came out impressed with the onboard performance. It was able to push 3 out of the 4 games benchmarked at nearly the same speeds that the much more expensive CPUs from Intel did. Most games ...
Integrated graphics can handle most games at 1080p and midrange settings, Compatible with existing FM2+ socket motherboards, Can be configured to run at 45 or 65 watts
CPU performance still lags behind the competition, Fast RAM required for best gaming performance, HSA support currently limited
AMD's latest CPU/GPU isn't an overclocker, but paired with fast RAM it can handle 1080p gaming quite well, and it can run in a lower-power mode without a huge hit to performance. For a low-priced or slim gaming PC, it's a good option. Read More…...

When AMD launched their 95W Kaveri APUs and we had the opportunity to test the top A10 model, it offered some of the best integrated graphics performance for a desktop we had seen. The fact that the die is partitioned such that more than 50% of it is for...

The A107800 crams a quadcore CPU and an eightcore R7 GPU into a $155 APU that will have you playing modern games on low to medium settings.
Folks who can spare a few bucks more are better off with a Core i3 and a discrete GPU while those on a tight budget will find more value in the A87600.
When we first tested Kaveri in January, we concluded that it was ideal for gamers who wanted to build a budget machine without a pricey graphics card. The same is true today for the A10-7800 as it dusted the Core i3 when measuring integrated graphics perf...

Today's changes, including the addition of the A10-7800, bring AMD's desktop CPU offerings up to date with the latest Kaveri silicon. Our direct comparison of the A10-7800 versus the A10-6700 illustrates what that shift means. Kaveri is somewhat more pow...
