They're both the same model number, but they have different spec's, and names, I'd rather get the Tigerdirect version because of the BF4 coupon and price, but I'm confused by the spec's being lower than the Newegg version. Anyone know what's going on? Or do you think it's a typo.

Typo, it's the same CPU.

Also the combo deal is available on Newegg as well http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.1535051

They seem to be two different APUs

The TigerDirect is the older one and the Newegg has the newer Kaveri series.

The Kaveri series has been out for less than a month, here is a good article:

bkoop :

Both of them are Kaveri

rakadedo · Feb 10, 2014

No, they're the same apu, tigerdirect just has a typo that says R5 instead of R7. It is most certainly a Kaveri APU (Both due to the A10-7700k name, as well as the R5/7 graphics name, since only Kaveri uses GCN graphics).
