14 DAY TRIAL // Surprisingly enough, Advanced Micro Devices isn't clamoring and trumpeting the arrival of every chip in its collection. That doesn't mean the new processors aren't impressive though, as the A10-6790K has just shown.
Just a bit behind the performance of the top-tier A10-6800K, it is a quad-core unit with on-chip Radeon HD 8670D graphics.
The base clock is of 4 GHz, while the Turbo Core setting is of 4.3 GHz. That's 100 MHz behind the A10-6800K, in both cases.
The other difference is the support for 1866 MHz memory (A10-6800K handles DDR3-2133).
The rest of the specs are the same though: 100W TDP, GPU speed of 844 MHz, 4 MB L2 cache. It's all a package deal for high-end Piledriver.
The price should be of around $130 / €130, just like for the A10-5700 and A10-5800K. Pre-orders may have already started in certain regions.
