AMD has officially released three new Kaveri APUs; the A10-7800, A8-7600 and A6-7400K. It has been a month since two of the three APUs were first announced.
The A10-7800 is the higher end of the lot, with a total of 12 compute cores. Its base clock speed is rated at 3.5GHz, which can be boosted to a maximum of 3.9GHz. The A8-7600 comes with 10 compute cores, and its clock speeds are rated lower than the A10-7800. The A6-7400K, which was first announced together with the A10-7800, sports six compute cores. Please refer to the table below for their general specifications.
Processor Model
| Compute Cores (CPU+ GPU) | Clock Speed | L2 Cache | GPUFrequency (Max) | Max TDP (W) |
A10-7800 (with Radeon R7 Graphics) | 12 (4 CPU + 8 GPU) | 3.5GHz
(3.9 GHz Max Turbo Frequency) | 4MB | 720GHz | 65/45 |
A8-7600 (with Radeon R7 Graphics) | 10 (4 CPU + 6 GPU) | 3.1GHz
(3.8 GHz Max Turbo Frequency) | 4MB | 720GHz | 65/45 |
A6-7400K (with Radeon R5 Graphics) | 6 (2 CPU + 4 GPU) | 3.5GHz
(3.9 GHz Max Turbo Frequency) | 1MB | 756GHz | 65/45 |
Both systems on chip have support for AMD TrueAudio and Mantle technologies. They also feature configurable thermal design power that will allow users to operate the SoC at a lower power rate in order to conserve power draw. The A10-7800 is priced at US$155 and the A8-7600 is available for US$105. The cheapset of the lot is the A6-7400K that is priced at US$77. For now, the A4-7300 is still kept under wraps though it was announced in July this year.
