I'll buy that wall of computer parts behind you for $7

[subber]

so like Apu series is better than fx series right?

[Vschiavinatto]

did you forget to mention what was the offboard video card used on the tests

[Luredreier]

Well, they start out with different clock speeds, of course they perform differently.
However what is the results when you use the same clock speed on the two?
The later APUs are supposed to have better IPC then the FX series CPUs...
Is that correct?
And if yes is does that IPC advantage survive overclocking?

[RhinoXpress]

wonder how the new bristol ridge apu stacks up against the current fx cpus.

[insertasadheart]

how is the best a procesador AMD fx7500 radeon r7 or amd a9010 radeon r5?

[JosiahPartney]

woudn't your premiere pro use your gpu instead? therefore if you used a r9 in both tests as you said, it should be the same.

[MartinA-xhck]

Why buy an APU if you are going to use an high-end GPU anyway... makes no sense

with the Fm2+ *Socket you can just get the 860k 4 cores cheap CPU. Do not buy an APU if you have the money for an mid- high end GPU

[coltconley]

your graphing isn't consistent and is very misleading. 2:56 its right. 3:20 looks like the APU barely showed up for work at all, but the finely printed numbers show they were neck and neck. your graphs should always show the zero point. put the score next to or inside the bar for the test if they are too close to distinguish. you did solid experiments but poorly reported the results.

[benderue]

Can you give some examples of a CPU bound game?

[artyfly]

nice video! but i'd change the graphs, because they look like there's a huge difference sometimes while there is barely any (like in the temperature one)

[johnysthimiosjohnys]

Which one is better for video editing?

[HeadNose]

So lets say I were to get an A10 7890K (apu) and I already have a GTX960. Would I the apu still run like a good cpu or would it not do anything cpu wise?

[ExtremelySkilledGamer]

Which is better for gaming? AMD A9 9410 with the Radeon R5 or the Intel i3 6100 with the HD530? These are laptops not pc's I'm looking at btw.

[Pablomi]

Here in my city I can see (Amd fx 8350 black edition) and for a lower price (AMD A10 9700). Which one should I buy for games??
I know that A10 is integrated graphics, but given the 2 choices. Which one?
Also I dont know about energy consumption, I wanted to make a computer with my 550w corsair power supply...

[SILENTDEATH]

Interesting Sir.In late 2014 I built a BE7850 rig and used a corsiar H100i watercooler but was only able to reach 4.6GHZ reliably.While it is a great low cost gaming rig in cross fire with a MSI R7 250 it just didnt have near enough POWER for me so i built and still working on a 9590 machine with the Kracken G61 cooler.I FINALLY received a fine specimen of silicone.At room temperature it runs prime 95 for days at 5.2 GHZ and along with 4 R9-290X lightnings I no longer need to use my heater in the wintertime!!!!

[aarongarza]

APU = PCI-E x16 3.0
FX = PCI-E x16 2.0

Just thought I would point this out in case someone else has not.

[brandonkelly]

I've got an amd a9 9410 apu with Radeon r7 m440 what games can I run

[himalaypanchal]

What is good for 3d max, Photoshop and stuff? (what will give better rendering speeds?) fx or apu?

[juandavidvelezhernandez]

I have an AMD 5800k apu with integrated graphics, I plan to put a GT 1030, could I shoot the APEX LEGENDS?
