AMD introduces A10-7800 quad-core APU

Based on 28nm Kaveri architecture

In order to compete a bit better with Intel's Core i3 Haswell CPUs, AMD has introduced a new mid-range quad-core socket FM2+ APU based on 28nm Kaveri architecture, the A10-7800.


Slightly different than the earlier introduced A10-7850K APU, the new A10-7800 APU lacks unlocked CPU base clock multiplier but has a lower 65W TDP as well. It packs four Steamroller based CPU cores spread across two modules, packs 4MB of L2 cache and works at 3.5GHz base and 3.9GHz TurboCore CPU clocks.

It also comes with integrated Radeon R7 series GPU with 512 GCN2 cores, support for AMD Mantle API and DirectX 11.2. The new APU also comes with integrated dual-channel DDR3 memory controller with support for DDR3-1866 memory as well as a PCI-Express gen 3.0 root complex.

The new A10-7800 quad-core APU is expected to hit retail/e-tail shelves pretty soon with a price tag of somewhere between US $140 and $150. Unfortunately, the new A10-7800 APU has yet to show up in Europe.
