I wonder why no A8 or A10?

 

[abitoms]

all the apus listed in the article are listed as a6. really?

 

[Maxx_Power]

Maybe they are holding those names for the full-functionality Pile Driver cores.

 

[EzioAs]

Guys, there are A10s. Read here http://hexus.net/tech/news/cpu/43697-amd-launch-trinity-desktop-apus-1st-october/

i assume those are typo-errors ....there is no A6-5800K ... 5800K is an A10 part.

I can't wait to see how the unlocked Trinity processors scale in performance relative to their clock speed. Hopefully they are released as stated and not later, we've had to wait long enough already.

 

[akopp21]

The processor in the image says "A10 5800 Series" on it, I doubt they would also have an A6 5800.

 

[EacieQ]

A6-5800k ? There is no such thing. I believe it is A10-5800k. Must be false post.

 

[dyc4ha]

Can the 7660D be crossfired? I remember reading somewhere that crossfire only works with certain cards, but I'm not sure.

 

[slabbo]

lol at the failed in this article.

A6-5400K
A8-5500
A8-5600K
A10-5700

A10-5800/5700
A8-5600/5500
A6-5400
A4-5300

 

[dsigned]

Hope they're worth the wait. I'd really like an AMD chip that I can justify buying over an Intel.

I believe it was all of the old gpus + some of the OEM HD 7xxx series that are not retail. I cannot recall which ones though(the HD series before 7750 which you cannot buy from a normal retailer)

 

[daglesj]

Well thats the most exciting tech picture I've seen in years. So radical.

I'm pleased that they decided to settle on a more coherent naming sequence this time round. The A4 will be a 5300 part, and every even x number is an unlocked model, it appears.

And a Sandy Bridge I5 2500k will beat them all.

you failed to mention how that intel is also like twice the price, dude stop comparing a cadillac to a corolla.

 

[carcharocles_theory]

If that 7660 GPU is anything like the 6600 series in terms of performance, you've got one heck of a built in GPU. With the right price, these will be spectacular for budget builds.

I'll enjoy watching you trying to plop the i5 in a $400-$600 build. You would need a cardboard case, a very cheap motherboard, 1-2 GB of RAM and no dedicated GPU to fit the i5 in.

In short, you'll have a very unbalanced and terrible build if you're on a budget.

 

[A Bad Day]

EDIT: And if you want to OC the i5 while on the $400-$600 budget, go knock yourself out.

Yeah? Run that I5 2500k with it's integrated graphics against some of those Trinity APUs in an overall (cpu + igpu) gaming situation, then report back please. Your findings may not support your claim.

if you are talking about cpu performance then yeah thanks for stating the obv, but when it comes to gpu performance it would get crushed. So what's your point intel fanboy?
