The onboard HD7660D delivers respectable results with this intensive Direct X 11 benchmark, scoring 1,424 points in the default ‘performance' test. This is an indication of reasonable gaming performance. We will look at this later in the review.
looks like a great chip from AMD, I havent though that in quite some time either. Intel must be worried !
Asus make great motherboards, but the prices of these A85X motherboards are stupid. I wouldnt pay this for a board for a £95 chip
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!
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?
Yeah ill be getting one of these chips at some stage, but I might wait until it hits a mobile platform near me
