Over at CES AMD added a new APU SKU, this is the A10-7890K APU. It is based on ther FM2 chipset, and also is based on kaveri with a small tweak. The A10-7890K Desktop APU would be the fastest one available (for an APU).

The A10-7890K Turbo frequency is 4.30 GHz (4.20 GHz for the A10-7870K). The base clock speed remains the same.

AMD also announces that it is working with its motherboard partners to launch an updated series of socket FM2+ and AM3+ motehrboards. These would be fitted with USB 3.1 type-C and type-A, and M.2 PCIe slots. See the slides.

Looks like they're clearing old stock before the AM4 boards & chips start rolling out in a couple of months

AM4 APUs are planed for early 2017. Zen Comes Q3 2016. And I am not sure if it will be on desktops or server platform 1st.

God-dammit and we just got our 7870k and they come out with this lol, You can never win I tell you. Is there any diffrence on the graphics clock or just the cpu will turbo to 4.3 Ghz? Thats still impressive clock I must say on a stock cooler.

I still havent attempted to overclock ours, but once I get a decent cooler we have a good board to back it up also Gigabyte A88x Up 4-I heard its one of the best Fm2+ boards you can get.

Anyone know if these kaveri apus have the throttling issues that the richland and trinity apus had. I want to get the one with the gpu disabled on it since I have the mobo already with my old gtx 670.
