AMD Launches A8-7670K APU

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 07/20/2015 02:32 PM | source: | 16 comment(s)
AMD Launches A8-7670K APU

AMD today launched another Kaveri APU, the A8-7670K APU has the usual 4 CPU cores and Six Radeon cores. The chip is clocked at 3.6 GHz with a turbo allowance to 3.9 GHz making it a fraction faster opposed to the 7650K.

AMD has cut back the chip’s Radeon graphics by two GPU cores totalling to six, the GPU frequency drop from A10 866MHz to 757MHz. The upside of these changes is the price; the A8 is only $118, while the A10 retails at $140. The A8-7670K should be available at $117.99.

That second slide with the price is such royal bullsh!t, it borders on false advertising:

Intel G3258 price: $72 (street price: $70)
Nvidia GT730 price: Can't find MSRP, but street price is $51.

AMDJoe, please explain where your marketing department came up with these prices of $74 (CPU) and $58 (GPU)?

Hi, I am starting to like you, especially since I have 'The Fortune' to read your last 100 posts on our forums.
They shown, that you have great expertise in everything, that your opinion is always right. And anyone and anything you do not agree with is worth attacking by any means available.

Yet, with all that above and more, I have not seen in those posts single one where you would even remotely try to help anyone.

So while I do not intend to argue with you again (unless you change) as it is pure waste of time, I am starting to enjoy your activity here thanks to understanding your inner motives.

How is it false advertising? It says right in the slide that they got it from price watch yesterday. Regardless, even if you use your prices, 70+51 = $121, which is still more expensive than $117.99. Like to what degree do their pricing estimates have to be accurate? Do the slides have to dynamically update for every single possible sale, site, tax, shipping?

Like I agree that for the most part AMD's marketing is terrible, but this is like the worst possible example to get upset about.
