3DMark is Futuremark’s latest benchmark. It can be used to benchmark and compare everything from mobile devices, such as smart phones, tablets and laptops, to high-end gaming systems. The benchmark is available for Windows, Windows RT Android and iOS.
With 3 separate tests, each of which is intended to be used alongside a specific classification of hardware, 3DMark is a very versatile benchmark. Ice Storm is intended to be used with mobile devices, Cloud Gate is good for use with laptops and home PCs, and Fire Strike can be used to push the performance of gaming PCs.
We used the ‘Fire Strike’ benchmark which is designed to be used on gaming PCs. We opted for the Normal setting, NOT the Extreme mode.
These results are fairly weak compared to systems with dedicated GPUs but are impressive considering the integrated nature of the graphics on both processors.
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.
