To test this chip we will run all of our tests at stock speeds, then overclock the chip as far as it will allow and then run the tests again.
Test system:
- Asus F2A85-V Pro (A85X) (With BIOS update for Richland APUs)
- AMD A10-6700 & A10-6800k
- ASUS Matrix HD 7970 Platinum
- Corsair Vengeance 1866MHz 16GB
- Corsair H100i
- Corsair HX1050
- Kingston HyperX 240GB SSD
- Lian Li T60
We would like to thank Asus, Corsair, Kingston and Lian Li for supplying us with our test system components.
Many different software applications are also used to gain the broadest spectrum of results, which allows for the fairest testing possible.
Software used:
- 3DMark 11
- AIDA64
- Cinebench R11.5
- CPU-Z
- PCMark 7
- SuperPI
It’s been years now since I’ve taken a look at any AMD processor. The last one I tested was an Athlon 64 3800+ back in 2005 and if memory serves me correctly I was quite impressed with it.
real informative benchmarks here…..all you tested was 3d mark? not even one real game? and yet the page is called gaming benchmarks?
agreed, need more benchies with the real games guys.
