Performance measurement of seven-generation a12-9800 APU in AMD

Earlier this month, AMD released the desktop seventh generation Apu, code-named Bristol Ridge, the first to bring AM4 new interface, support DDR44 memory, USB 3.1, and finally can be with the Intel six-generation processor a higher.

One of the first high-end APU models is a12-9800, Quad core 3.8-4.2ghz,radeon R7 GPU 512 stream processors, thermal design power dissipation 65W. AMD says it can contend with Intel Core i5-6500.

Now the foreign media has been sent to the a12-7800 contrast Kaveri flagship a10-7870k's on-machine test.

A10-7870K is still currently the main sales of AMD, after a10-7890k. It is based on Kaveri refresh core build, followed by fm2+ interface, using four core design, CPU calculation unit default frequency 3.9GHz, overclocking 4.1GHz, two cache for 4MB. At the same time, AMD a10-7870k's GPU unit uses the Radeon R7 display core, its core frequency increases to 866mhz,512 the flow processor, the thermal design power dissipation 95W.

a12-9800 and A10 7870K performance comparison

As you can see, computing performance has increased by 5%, single-threaded 6%, and multithreading 15%. The obvious change, as well as storage, is up to 20% of the bandwidth boost.

In the test "Tomb Raider 10", with GTX 1070 graphics, performance improved 10~15%.

In terms of power consumption, the TDP gap is obvious and the actual measurement is consistent. In the Prime95 temperature test, it is 20 degrees lower than the a10-7870k.
