Question AMD A10-7870K is surprising

[ditrate]

I don't expect that such an old CPU would be suitable for simple office usage, or I wrong?

Please elaborate on "simple". I personally have built office machines that needed a lot of ram since they wanted to open multiple tabs, while also having an instance or two of AutoCAD(for accounting purposes). If you're referring to data entry, spreadsheets, PDF documents, web browsing...yes it's capable of holding it's ground.

Sure, this CPU can handle basic/office use needs.

I suprised how old AMD hardware holds up, I was able to buy an used gpu R7 240 OC (ddr3/2GB) for 15-20$. This thing can output 1080p and even handle TeamViewer.

Sure. Any fairly modern PC can handle such basic tasks.

Their limitations will be clear when heavy calculations are performed, like multi-tasking, video rendering, running massive spreadsheets/databases....and even gaming.
