I wonder why AMD didn't send TR an A10-7850K... Their drivers are in Release Candidate status and they're probably still working out the frame pacing thing, so they might have been afraid of TR's testing methodology, haha.
Anyway... Taking out Anand's intent of selling Intel hardware throughout the review, I say Kaveri numbers are quite good; not DA BEST THING EVAR, but good and within my expectations. Now, it was specially impressive for the 65/45W part, the A8-7600. I think that little baby is the gem. It will be a great HTPC buddy for low cost systems and I'm really eager to see it in Lappies. Well, once they lower its "TAKE IT WHILE ITS FRESH" price.
All in all, the only thing that disappointed me, was FM2 not accepting Kaveri; was that due to PCIe 3? Also the chipset thing was weird. They really made it complicated to know which NB goes where, haha.
Oh well... We need an HTPC article and some tweaking guide for Kaveri. And new software![Stick Out Tongue :p :p](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Cheers!
