Processador AMD APUs Kaveri

Pelos vistos sim, mas agora que falas nisso a AMD tinha lançado o 860K que tinha velocidade de 3.7-4.0GHz, com o "novo 870K" vão passar a ter 3.5-3.7GHZ? Não é muito lógico, mas pronto...
 
AMD’s upcoming Godavari APU lineup has been leaked by VR-Zone ahead of its launch in summer, this year. The new Godavari APU which are also known to be part of the Kaveri-Refresh platform which is aimed to re-fresh the current Kaveri APUs with the new 8000 series branding will be featured across 12 new processors utilizing the x86 Steamroller core and GCN graphics architecture.



AMD Godavari APU “Kaveri-Refresh” Lineup Leaked – A10-8850K Flagship APU
First of all, being simply known as the Kaveri-Refresh platform, Godavari will feature the same architectural enhancements as Kaveri with the same CPU and GPU cores. We are talking about x86 Steamroller and GCN here which have already been fused on the current AMD A-7000 Series offerings. Godavari will retain the maximum four x86 core and 512 stream processor design and will be available in several variants as a part to refresh the current A-Series lineup. AMD is going to use the latest 8000 series branding for the new chips and will stick to the FM2+ platform supporting DDR3 memory at 2133 MHz. The current motherboards will be able to support the new chips without any problems with new BIOS updates rolling out prior to launch.

As for performance and clock speeds, the clock speeds will obviously get a slight bump since that is what’s the refresh is all about. The chips will retain their TDPs. As for the performance, it will be anywhere from 5-15% better than the current Kaveri APUs due to better driver support and improved clock speeds. Other details are not known at the moment but AMD will have an official announcement made during the same time as 2015’s Computex event. Aside from Godavari, the main announcement coming from AMD this year will be the new AMD Radeon graphics cards which will deliver insanely huge performance increases over the current Radeon generation of cards.

In total, AMD is going to launch 12 new APUs, 10 of which are part of the A-Series family while two are part of the Athlon series family. The specifications of some chips are listed below while full specifications can be found in the table provided at the end of this article:

Desktop e são os mesmos chips do ano passado.

O estranho é que os novos chips Carrizo é que deviam estar para sair agora.. portanto se calhar foram atrasados. Outra vez.
 
Mais uns artigos inclui freesync (acho que Kaveri já tinha) e VSR (não sei se é novidade, mas também para o iGPU penso que será de pouca utilidade em jogos minimamente puxados).

Quanto a OC há quem diga que mantém o bug do Kaveri (throttle/espécie de corta-rotações) e outros dizem que não...

Nada de novo no problema dos APU's - bottleneck na largura de banda. Nem sequer a tal nova compressão do GCN 1.2 (lossless delta color compression).
 

Acabei de ler a review e pouco ou nada muda.
Isto é, se alguém ia comprar um 7850K é claro que fica melhor servido com um 7870K, mas para outros cenários de compra nada muda.

Fiquei a questionar-me se vale a pena o aumento de 20% de clock no gpu integrado. Isto porque a diferença é mínima. Fica-se com a sensação que ela esta limitada pela memória.
Parece-me que o aumento de clock é mais para colocar um ponto no papel do que para ter efeitos práticos.

Os benchmarks com a 240 DDR3 também não favorecem nada esta opção.

Eu quero simpatizar com os produtos da AMD, mas é complicado. Isto não passa de um speed bump.
Para light gaming serve. Pelo menos a AMD apontou o marketing deste cpu para esse mercado.

Zen chega rápido!!!Com HBM se possível para o gpu.
 
Do que se ia sabendo até agora, ou seja, Carrizo apenas para mobile e novos cores X86 e ARM, era de esperar que o refresh fosse apenas um "bump".

Não dando os recursos para tudo há que definir prioridades.
 
Em certos casos na review, perdeu performance para o 7850k.
O carrizo ja vem com o CGN 1.2, se vier ai uma versão desktop, daria um aumento de performance na parte grafica
 
Algumas reviews estão erradas, não é GCN 1.2. O GCN 1.2 até agora só no Tonga e parece que o Carrizo também vai ser.


GCN 1.2 was introduced with the Radeon R9 285 and R9 M295X, which have the "Tonga" GPU. It features improved tessellation performance, lossless delta color compression in order to reduce memory bandwidth usage, an updated and more efficient instruction set, a new high quality scaler for video, and a new multimedia engine (video encoder/decoder).
