All results were obtained on an un-optimized Windows 7 64-bit. These are our figures, yours may vary so only use these as a guideline for a similarly configured system. 3DMark Cloud Gate AMD A10 7850K @ 4.4GHz 960MHz GPU / 2400MHz Memory AMD A10 7850K 720MHz GPU/ 2400MHz Memory 3DMark Firestrike Catzilla 1.3 720p Resident Evil 6 720p PCMark8 Creativity Suite CineBench R15 CPU CineBench R15 OpenGL Memory Copy 7972 Graphics: 12081 1621 Graphics: 1805 2766 Hardware: 2743 4115 4053 364 51,57 21507 7035 Graphics: 10814 1575 Graphics: 1714 2581 Hardware: 2559 4053 3770 319 47,15 20879 but that isn’t significantly smaller than the 32nm node that was used on Trinity APUs. The big thing here for AMD is their push for heterogeneous system architecture (HSA) and Kaveri is the most direct way to go about achieving this. Perhaps this is the first realization of a vision that started more than seven or eight years ago with the then acquisition of ATI. With Kaveri AMD has made improvements (at least on paper) to both the CPU and GPU element of their APU. The frequencies are low
