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.
Total CPU performance isn't dramatically better than the chip it replaces. Intel cores still offer better CPU performance for the money
The AMD A10-7850 APU's great graphics performance and new computer features are partially undercut by the CPU performance....

On the CPU front, Kaveri did not make a giant leap that we have hoped. It is a bit of a mixed bag where the reduction in the clock speed hurts its performance in apps such as Cinebench that demands on higher clockspeed. On the other hand, for the software...
Abstract: AMD clearly made a long-term investment with APU as a concept. This is, in our opinion, the biggest innovation that AMD made in the recent decade. Simply put, we all love expensive video cards, processors and motherboards, but when the time comes to pull ...

AMD did their best making emphasis on the integrated video core capabilities. Indeed, in the APU important than absolute performance in the test benchmarks, and a good balance between the processor and graphics. So far AMD A10-7850K is the best in all APU...
Abstract: Today's review covers three key components that work together as the backbone of an AMD APU setup! I'll be looking at the AMD A10-7850K APU along with the MSI R7 250 OC Edition graphics card, and the MSI A88XMN Gaming MATX motherboard. Before I get into t...
The Kaveri brings about a few innovations and technologies like hardware HSA support, but most of them offer no real benefits right now. Promoting the Kaveri series to the desktop market, AMD puts an emphasis on several things such as the Steamroller ...
Now that we have put the A10-7850K through all of our benchmarks we finally have an idea of where it stands. AMD has done a great job of improving on the already good performance of their APUs when it comes to the integrated graphics. Even better, they a...

Abstract: AMD have focused heavily on their lower end market in recent years. Intel has left a large gap in the market for consumers seeking lower end processors for a reasonable price, and AMD has now excelled in that area with its range of APUs.We first saw the A...

I have been a fan of both AMD and Intel for years. Each has their strengths and weaknesses.AMD has shifted focus from a pure performance standpoint to an overall system experience with the new APU line up. AMD continues to make strides in their processors...
Low Priced, HSA Computing Looks Promising, Overall Improved Performance, 4.5GHz Overclock, Good Temperatures, Improved Video Performance, Unlocked, Low Power Consumption, 1080p Gaming On Low settings With No Discrete GPU, Up to Date DualGraphics Configura
Only a Small Improvement On Some CPU Intense Workloads, Single Thread Performance Stagnant
“Kaveri” is the codename for AMD's newest version of their A-Series processors. This update brings two A10 series SKUs that are both unlocked. We tested the A10-7850K, which has an updated graphics core based on the “Hawaii” GPU. What this means is we h...
