While we have already seen some of the details regarding the upcoming Carrizo APUs as well as the recent 3DMark leak which shows the new FX-8800P APU, we can now see a full list of upcoming AMD Carrizo mobile APUs, including FX-series parts, A-series parts and R-series parts.
AMD has already
officially unveiled some of the features and architecture details for the upcoming Carrizo APU lineup and the FX-8800P was spotted in 3DMark but today we have a full list of upcoming AMD Carrizo mobile APUs,
leaked at SATA-IO.org site, including the confirmation that the earlier leaked FX-8800P APU is the flagship SKU.
Scheduled to launch in mid-2015, AMD's Carrizo mobile APU lineup will include FX-series, standard A-series as well as the R-series, for a total of 10 SKUs. It is not yet clear if AMD plans more models or what is the core configuration on these leaked models but it appears that there will be plenty of models to choose from.
The list starts with the flagship FX-8800P which was spotted leaked in 3DMark earlier. While there were no precise specification in that same leak, it did note that it feature 12 Compute Cores, which adds up to earlier details that AMD Carrizo mobile APUs will have 8 GCN Compute Units with four x86 Excavator cores, something that AMD introduced with the launch of Kaveri and GPGPU term. Rest of the known specifications include Radeon R7-class graphics part with 512 Stream Processors and that the APU is working at 1.7GHz base and 2.1GHz Turbo clock. It managed to score 2645 points in 3DMark 11 which puts it above 2150 points for Kaveri FX-7600P flagship APU.
In addition to the flagship FX-8800P, AMD Carrizo mobile APU lineup also includes three A-series chips, the A10-8700P, A8-8600P and the A6-8500P. The list also includes AMD Pro chips with "B" suffix, including the FX-8800B, A10-8700B, A8-8600B and the A6-8500B. The list also includes two AMD R-series SKUs, which are part of AMD's Merlin Falcon family. These might be also based on AMD's Excavator CPU architecture and will target high-performance SoC segment or pretty much be AMD's embedded version of Carrizo APU family.
In any case, AMD puts a lot of confidence in its upcoming Carrizo APU lineup and with recent details that suggest that it offers same performance at lower power consumption or higher performance at normal power consumption, compared to Kaveri, do sound quite impressive.
