Asus F2A85-V Pro & AMD A10 5800K Review (w/ HD7660D)

The Matroska Media container is a very popular, open standard Multimedia container which is usually found as .MKV files. It is a very popular format in enthusiast circles and can be played directly in Windows Media Player with suitable codecs installed. We use the Combined Community Codec Pack (CCCP).

We ripped our BluRay disc of Sniper Reloaded to 1080P MKV and use Windows Media Player to playback the file.

The system averaged around 30 percent CPU time which is quite a good result. MKV contained files can be very demanding of the partnering hardware.

  1. looks like a great chip from AMD, I havent though that in quite some time either. Intel must be worried !

  2. Asus make great motherboards, but the prices of these A85X motherboards are stupid. I wouldnt pay this for a board for a £95 chip

  3. I wasnt expecting this to be that good, so im shocked. I can see this being really popular for media centers and small chassis builds.

    If they did a deal on motherboard and chip for £130 all in, that would be great. I can hope!

  4. I noticed on the Cinebench test that the A10 smashes the Core i7 2640M at standard clocks. Obviously it wouldn’t get near a desktop Intel i7, but this result must be a strong indication of what A10 can do in Ultrabooks, no? How much will A10 get crippled to fit inside a mobile solution?

  5. Yeah ill be getting one of these chips at some stage, but I might wait until it hits a mobile platform near me
