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? ...
Abstract: The latest benchmarks of the AMD A10-7850K APU to share on Phoronix and to complement yesterday's Windows vs. Linux OpenGL comparison are benchmarks of the APU's Radeon R7 Graphics compared to numerous AMD Radeon and NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards.For this...

AMD’s pursuit of combined computing is really starting to show results with Kaveri. While some of the results we have seen that make use of OpenCL are a sort of ‘best case scenario’, they are real world results, from real applications that real people use. The incl...

In a vacuum where all that's available are other AMD parts, Kaveri and its Steamroller cores actually look pretty good. At identical frequencies there's a healthy increase in IPC, and AMD has worked very hard to move its Bulldozer family down to a substan...
Abstract: AMD’s Kaveri is finally here and we look at the A10-7850K & A8-7600. With IPC improvements, Steamroller x86 cores and a GCN-based graphics processor, this may be the one we’ve been waiting for....
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: 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...
