What can we expect from the successor of the A8 7650k?
Will it offer insane value in one package too?
High frequency DDR4 can match low frequency gDDR5 in bandwidth, like in the r7 250x, so can we expect at the very least, r7 250x performance from the igpu of the A8 and A10 APUs?
What do we know? What does AMD have in store for us?

>A8 7650k
Why? A shitty CPU and shitty GPU in one. The only kind of games that GPU can play well is stuff like league.
But if thats all you play you can get just a i3 6100 for about the same price considering the money saved on faster RAM for the APU.
Or add a 1050 to it for a much much better machine.
Also, basically we dont know. Ryzen is coming first but hopefully the APUs will have the same very much improved cores.

Quad core processor and entry level dedicated gpu in one package for almost the same price as a pentium and powerful enough for casual gaming.
BF4 runs at 40-50 fps on medium (mantle) and gta V struggles but manages 35-40ish fps on low settings. 1080p btw.
I paid 99 AUD for mine, I'd say that's good value, wouldn't you?

well, it's cheap, but I cant say good value. You get a machine that can game very poorly, sure.
But when you're spending, say, usd250 on case, ram, mobo, psu and disks I can't say it's good value. It's just too weak for a good gaming experience. The difference between this APU which struggles with new games and a system that can play most games at high setting is only ~$160.

I'm not poor, I just don't care about ultra settings so it was a decent cheap option to join my friends online.
Why spend more than you need to?
