AMD Kaveri Review: A10-7850K, A10-7700K and A8-7600

Memory Scaling

Memory scaling with Kaveri yields impressive results in GPU intensive applications like gaming and compute. Below you can see a range of scenarios with the A10-7850K and a variety of memory speeds: stock (1866MHz), 2133MHz and 2400MHz. For a more in-depth look at how memory scaling affects the performance of the Kaveri A10-7850K across a wider range of benchmarks, and for analysis of those results, please see our full Kaveri A10-7850K Memory Scaling article right here.

“AMD’s Kaveri APUs demonstrate significant GPU performance improvements from faster memory speeds. Anyone contemplating an A10 series AMD Kaveri APU should strongly consider 2133MHz memory or above, anyone looking to the A8 series APUs should start from 1866MHz. The main beneficiary of faster memory is gaming – so if you’re going to be gaming on a Kaveri APU fast memory is a must.”
