A10-7800 CPU Review
Conclusions
Contents
When we tested the A10-6800K and the Core i3-4150, we concluded that the Core i3-4150 had more CPU power, but the A10-6800K had a better integrated GPU, and could be good for casual gaming if you intended to use its integrated video (i.e., not install an add-on video card).
On one hand, the A10-7800 proved to have a little less computing power than the A10-6800K on most applications, probably due to its lower clock rate. On the other hand, its Radeon R7 integrated GPU is substantially more powerful than the A10-6800K’s, which is shown in 3DMark tests and in most games we ran.
Allied to the lower TDP (which can be lowered to 45W if your BIOS supports this configuration) than the A10-6800K, this leads us to conclude that the A10-7800 is an excellent option if you are only going to use the processor’s integrated GPU, and you are looking for good performance for multimedia, HTPC, or casual gaming.
However, if you intend to use a discrete video card, there is no much sense in buying an A10-7800 processor; in this case, the Core i3-4150 is a better option.
