AMD A10-6800K (Richland) APU Review

Cinebench R11.5 is the newest revision of the popular benchmark from Maxon. The test scenario uses all of your system’s processing power to render a photorealistic 3D scene (from the viral “No Keyframes” animation by AixSponza). This scene makes use of various different algorithms to stress all available processor cores.

In fact, CINEBENCH can measure systems with up to 64 processor threads. The test scene contains approximately 2,000 objects containing more than 300,000 total polygons and uses sharp and blurred reflections, area lights and shadows, procedural shaders, antialiasing, and much more. The result is given in points (pts). The higher the number, the faster your processor.

This test lets us see how performance can benefit from using multi-threaded applications with the 6800K, showing an impressive performance return with all the cores being utilized.

  1. They are good value for what you get. add in a HD7870 and you also have a cheap, powerful gaming rig at 1080p

  2. Great for media center, no need for a discrete card.

    This was really useful to me, I have an older A8 and wanted to sell it, and put £70 towards a new gen model. It looks to be worth the move, especially for HD gaming.

  4. AMD rule in the low end, I just wish they could get something out at £300 to kick intels ass.

  5. The Gaming FPS tests have me confused. Are those the results with or without the dual graphics??? Or is it with the discrete graphics solution? I would like to see the performance with dual graphics.

  6. is the a10-6800k good for video editing and 3d rendering also? just struggling to find a good amd processor. thank you.
