In this test we see a significantly higher scores with the 6800K, part of which is due to the improvements in technology with the new platform and partly due to the higher-end nature of this chip compared to the A8-5600K.
They are good value for what you get. add in a HD7870 and you also have a cheap, powerful gaming rig at 1080p
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.
AMD rule in the low end, I just wish they could get something out at £300 to kick intels ass.
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.
is the a10-6800k good for video editing and 3d rendering also? just struggling to find a good amd processor. thank you.
