Gigabyte F2A85X-UP4 & AMD A10 5800K Review (w/ discrete)

MaxxMem2 PreView is a useful, free program to rate memory performance. It can be downloaded over here.

Using the same memory (at 10-10-10 timings) in two similarly priced systems shows that the AMD A10 5800K system seems to be bandwidth limited, similar (disappointing) results to those we recorded in the Sandra memory test earlier in the review.

  1. The prices of these A85X motherboards are stupid. I wouldnt pay this for a board for a £95 chip

  2. Nice one AMD, im impressed with this chip. might think about getting one later this year, but I agree on motherboard price. it makes the whole deal seem less palatable.

  3. Awesome stuff, love it.

  4. Does kind of make me wonder when using a discrete graphics, that unless the on-board graphics hybrid crossfires with it, what’s the point of having have half the die of the chip made up of graphics. Being a gamer i wouldn’t be using the on-board, I know that it is a nice balance, but id love to see an AMD Piledriver sans graphics (Binary ?) with the full die for the CPU. Selfish maybe… 😉
