AMD Athlon 5350 Kabini AM1 APU Review The Athlon nomenclature at one time was AMD’s mainstream processor now however, that Athlon name is given to the low cost/low power line. AMD is touting the new Athlon line as a “system on a socket” as all IO is handled on the CPU and there is not …
AMD Kaveri APU Architecture Overview
Today marks the release of the latest in a long line of AMD Accelerated Processing Units. Benchmark Reviews has been there for each one of the previous APU releases, and we would be remiss if we didn’t provide you with the latest news regarding this release. It has been a long road since Llano, the very first generation of AMD APUs, was announced just three short years ago at CES 2011. That processor brought together AMD’s long held vision of putting a discrete level GPU on the same die as the CPU; a vision that started back with the Fusion project and AMD’s acquisition of ATI.

AMD A10-6800K and A10-6700 Richland APUs Review
AMD A10-6800K and A10-6700 Richland APUs Review AMD has had a rough time keeping up with Intel in the CPU market for the past couple of years. The firm’s Bulldozer CPU architecture hasn’t worked out as planned, and AMD has been forced to limit the scope of its ambition. Rather than competing with Intel across the …
AMD A10-6700 APU Richland Processor Review
AMD has a pattern when it comes to processor releases. They release a new processor, run it through its paces for a while, then they release more of the same die with higher clock speeds. Generally, though, the new processors release at something closer to the release price of the first series of processors. That is the one part of the equation missing from this summer’s AMD APU releases. The AMD A10-6700 is the second processor coming out in June 2013 with an MSRP of $142. In this article, Benchmark Reviews is taking a detailed look at the A10-6700, especially its differences from the unlocked A10-6800K.
AMD A10-6800K APU Richland Desktop Processor Review
So far, it seems that the early summer of 2013 is destined to be full of Intel Haswell coverage. Rather than consigning themselves to the shadows, AMD is quietly releasing two new members of their APU family. The next generation of APUs is being represented at the top by the A10-6800K and the A10-6700 Accelerated Processing Units, codenamed Richland. It has been about eight months since AMD released the last generation, Trinity APUs. When that happened, AMD took back the performance lead from Ivy Bridge in the sub-$150 CPU price range. This has been AMD’s bread and butter for a while now, especially with their ability to pair discrete level graphics with their CPUs that totally decimate the onboard capabilities of their opponent. Haswell may change things, but for now, we’ll see where AMD is setting the bar for entry-level performance. In this article, Benchmark Reviews takes a hard look at the third generation of AMD APUs with the top end AMD A10-6800K Richland Processor.
