Well if it can run 1080p movies with no lag, that would be great.

There's only one review out that did not try bus clocking it, but lists that AMD has said the 200GE is Dram overclock capable.
The most limiting factor on this APU are the low clocks https://www.techspot.com/review/1698-amd-athlon-200ge/

There is hardware much worse than this (even by AMD) that could easily play 1080p videos, even 60FPS ones. I'm sure this APU could even play 30FPS 4K movies, assuming the GPU drivers are working properly.

It supports Crysis and full hd movies so Win 10 RS4 should be a breeze

the fm2 a6300 runs 1080p movies no problem youtube 1080p no problem 720p 60fps no problem ....slight stutter on youtube 1080p 60fps ... media player classic with hardware acceleration 1080p60fps also no problem i did not bother to tune youtube cause this pc is my fathers ... he watches ace streams and sopcast streams of soccer games .... so i made him 2 years ago a 150 euros pc to do that !
so if the bulldozer dual core can do that .... this cpu now will have no problem what so ever !

dumpster cpu that should of been on fm2 for ipc gains over my 860k.. This Athlon line up needs real 4 core cpu with 4 real core threads look I got scammed by amd. this cpu is only to keep their 1300x from only being 55 dollar. U suck amd. i7 2600 and i5 3470 +++are $100 dollar with full oem license to windows. trash 2006 cpu eat my shorts.
https://www.amd.com/en/products/cpu/860k
read specs says 4 cores 4 threads. seems I got 2 cores 2 threads 2+2=4 quad core. I thought I was buying a real 4 core cpu with 4 real core threads.

Ease up on the coffee.
The Bulldozer architecture was released in the Fall of 2011. The Steamroller-based 860K in the Summer of 2014. So, how did the concept of a single, shared, floating-point pipeline, and two integer pipelines for each core escape your due diligence?

Have you tried a i5 or i7? if amd didnt spend so much time creating shitty products they might have a good business. they fuck up their rebadges to much they have so many product ids they fail.
here is a real quad core apu that is at 2ghz 15w with single channel memory wtf. my corsair dual channel ram sticks will never see their potential i should of bought some hyundai sticks. An if they actaully upgrade this a6 cpu to a a8... no rename r4 to r5.
here we have a duel core cpu and a new lower watt editions which all could be bios up dates
drop menu 15w 25w 35w 45w 95w
core enable disable
wowowwow
nope new line up piss off existing customers put features on cpu no one even wants cool

It's $55. what are you expecting? the target is the price point. It is a great value for what it is.

Its not a bad product at $55 dollars honestly. You have 2 core 4 thread that can handle most games plus entry-level graphics until you can get some kind of mid-range gpu in there.
I had a few Apu builds back in the day like the Kaveri ect they relly weren't that bad honestly but in no way can you compare them to Dedicated-gpu machines just too slow!

Indeed the 860k is 4 cores and 4 threads, you might want to mess in the BIOS again and disable those low power options. If it happen to really be stuck at 2 cores whatever you do, well what are you waiting for to send it back under warranty instead of calling AMD scammer? BTW the new Athlon as much better IPC than the 860k and his architecture (based on Ryzen) is not compatible with FM2.
i7 2600 and i5 3470 doesn't come with an OEM licence, what are you talking about? These are 100$ USED and their IPC is inferior to this new Athlon which is perfect for office use. Nobodies that use Office and a web browser needs 4 or more cores so that CPU is perfect for that for the price it ask. It doesn't make sense for the 1300x to be 55$ when the competition is the i3, both share similar performance that the Athlon doesn't. Athlons are in competition with Pentiums, not i3s.

This looks great for an htpc build or ultra cheap office computers would be cool if they supported fsb overclocking like AM1 platform did those where fun to play with
