Yeah, same here - I may start recommending these APUs to my casual gaming friends and family. Looking nice for mainstream product lines indeed.

Not really interested in Kaveri any more. Carrizo is going to be more interesting since it's second gen HSA APU.

up to 12 compute units got me excited if they can do that with the full igpu enabled it would be crazy

That's 2015 or maybe 2016. Why buy PS4/XBONE when you can wait for PS5/XBRAINBOW!

Wow...I can't wait for these! 😀 Only thing is I wish and it's not looking like it but the memory controller's were better being on the FM2+ platform like Richland and Trinity...=\ Here's hoping that these have a big boost on the cpu improvement, or at least more communication between the gpu cores and cpu cores.

Could be better, we don't know 'til the numbers come out.

This is true my friend! I'm sure the higher cost is worth the performance difference! Either way, I can't wait to throw one of these in my rig! 😀

Don't forget to throw in a new motherboard as well....

Hopefully my 85x will be FM2+ compatible, if not then I'll have to move up to an FM2+ board. 😀

Now that will be interesting. If the iGPU CAN co-processes some x86 code (physics maybe?), we could be onto a real winner here.

Last I heard FM2+ is not backwards compatible with FM2 but judging by listings and reviews on Newegg that may not be the case....

Be like the 9800pro days of an all AMD system if they these CPUs, especially with Mantle and them dominating the console space. I cannot believe Nvidia were so short sighted to not want anything to do with consoles.

It's not that NVidia didn't want anything to do with the consoles. It's that MS and Sony wanted x86 based processors. It made more sense to get both CPU and GPU from AMD instead of dealing with 2 separate vendors. The only real options for what MS and Sony wanted, were Intel and AMD.

And relying on Intel for GFX would get them nowhere.
