4K video playback

[bjaminnyc]

Hi,

I'm curious if anyone has had experience simply playing 4k content with an A series APU on a FM2+, no gaming. If so what were your specs and overall satisfaction with performance?

I'm guess when HMDI 2.0 video cards come out in a few months you'll be able to get away with minimal processing power but curious what you can get away with until then for minimum specs @ 4k <30fps.

Thanks

well, an A-10 would probly struggle to play youtube on a 4k if you use the integrated graphics.

The A10-6800k plays YouTube 4k even while throttling the processor @<50% on integrated, I'm sure the Kaveri A10 series would be even better. At least that's what the reviews report, I'd love to hear someone's personal experience.
