AMD Kaveri queries

[gamerbloke]

So AMD Kaveri is an APU based on Steamroller... i want to know that
1) Will it beat FX-6300 for around same price?
2) Will there be CPU(no igpu) with Steamroller or AMD is now switching on APUs only?
3) Will wait for Kaveri till March 2014 be worth?

AnandTech Portal | AMD News: A10-6790K, 13.11 Beta6 Drivers, FM2+ Motherboards, Kaveri

1). Both are different technologies.For FX-6300 a GPU is a must.Whereas,KAVERI being an APU does not require so.As for price to performance ratio,KAVERI will be a little ahead.
2).As per latest news,AMD will continue to use piledriver arch. to its FX series,but KAVERI APU will have steamroller arch.Look at Hexus or X-Bit labs for more news.
3). Yes,better to wait.

Seriously there wont be any Steamroller for FX series.... i was really hoping for FX-64XX! Can u provide the link for official statement?
(I will be definitely waiting for it)
And what about cores 4 or 6 for Kaveri?

 

[bssunilreddy]

AFAIK the next chipset will not be based on FX series but will be an APU which might come in 4 cores iteration only.

 

[gamerbloke]

would there be any near rs8K??
main concern is Kaveri + 7750 will be able to tackle BF4 and GTA5? (coz 6300+7770 is really good)

I would say better get FX 6300. There will be Kaveri cpu without gpu core but whether they will be available here or not is another question like AMD Athlon 740. Don't compromise on the gpu part to get the latest APu under the hood.

Yr i wont be buying till March 2014 so i guess i will be having time to see what it has to offer. I really hope it proves to better than 6300, else there will be a sure price cut for 6300 so its a both side win situation!!

Waiting for that to happen,praying for divine intervention.

yeah let's wait for the best .. but if we have a look at the history then the appearance of Bulldozer just ended the good old phenom II lineup. BD was not superior in performance front though at a much later time PD somewhat fixed this.

^In this case topgear,the wait will be definite the worth.

what i hate the most is when people get a whiff of some another countries culture and start to defame their own country, criticism is fine but downright vilifying is not. i know you said it in a jest but still

Buddy most of us are.I am a mediocre from a very middle level family,but I am not ashamed for this nor any regrets.
The catch is even the mentality of the so called industrialists are mediocre in nature.Exceptional species are there,as you belong to one of them.No offence taken.

When is Kaveri based laptops to be launched here in India?
Any news or idea Friends?

 

[Cilus]

Unlike Llano Llano, Trinity and Richland, Kaveri will come 1st into Desktop market and then will make its way to Laptop market. So consider around February for Kaveri laptop launch. Now a days, Laptops ships to india pretty quickly after their international launch.

Companies Implementing APU platform have to get the quality a notch higher

I suggested all my friends with budget <40k AMD apu Laptops, The were very happy first playing games and getting tb's of storage at a lot less price than intel.

Then 3 of them reported severe heating issues (>80-90C) (in first 4-6 months), that's just insane temps, reseating the heat-sink did the job but usually leaves bad impression on the customer.
I had to convince them a lot to get AMD, they were just plain reluctant, (I even took guarantee for repairs myself) and issues like this just trash AMD's image further.
