AMD A10 5800K Trinity APU preview
In this preview we talk about what AMD is about to release with the AMD A10 5800K APU processor. Based on Trinity APU architecture and building on the strengths of both the Llano and Bulldozer design, the 2012 AMD A-Series platform has been updated to meet and exceed the increasing demands of today’s consumers. In this article we introduce you to the 2012 AMD A-Series platform. More CPU performance, and a much faster integrated graphics unit. Have a peek at the preview, with a review to follow next week on Monday. So this is a very limited preview focusing more on the technology rather then the performance, it's what AMD allows us to do and not so much what we want to show you as the entire article is already ready. Please stay tuned for the final article.

Thank you for this preview.
Unfortunately, it appears my 3.5-year old i7 920 offers more muscle, which is somehow disappointing. AMD really has to do something or just focus on slower CPUs.

Power consumption seems kinda high but that IGP performance is top notch. I sense an itx build coming along

its a crap... the ipc is still to low and the clocks have to compensate with the drawback of power consumption... its game over for amd this time, only the gpu department of amd will survive if nvidia lets them because if an 7970 with 4.3b transistors runs for its money with the supposed to be mid-range 680 with 3.4b transistors i dont want to think about an equal specked nvidia counter-part.
this is an indication that the piledriver fx8350 will only compete at best with old school sandy and still lagging in most cases behind
