The belief that AMD have been following for a number of years is something that they've decided to call ‘fusion' – a CPU and GPU on one die, or an APU (Accelerated Processing Unit) in other words.

i can't honestly give a fair review when the item advertised was an amd A10-7870k and i received an amd A8-7670k. but after sending a message in to the website i decided to just keep the A8 instead of going thru the hassle and expense of sending the processor back.

Let us tell you about the experience we had reviewing AMD's A8-7670K APU. It came in a tiny little white box. Presumably not the retail packaging. God, let's hope not. Though judging by AMD's lack of marketing share, this could be the real deal.

I've used to boost the integrated video from the base frequency to 1024Mhz and gave it 2 gb Ram and I can say save your money from intel buy AMD!

Would lock up the win 7 performance check and abort the activation. Luckily the older authentication remained active and I was able to install win 10 without incident.

Price for performance quite good; Installed without question and was up and running quickly

I had a lot of trouble getting Win 7 to recognize the hardware so I moved to Win 10 and all seems well - It authenticated

I was amazed at the performance this cpu has. Price is unbeatable. I was amazed that it has built in video ,but then again it says in description of item . Just as fast as my i5 4690k , in games. The cooler is sufficient.

I am in love! I can't believe what I've got being in this price range. I'm still coughing up my Coco Pops now as I think about it! The obvious trade off is the lack of a few usual thrills like built in wifi and DVD drive but I don't need those.

I bought 2 of these, and had them running an AVX-heavy load for 2 weeks 24/7 - both ran without crashing once. One I have in a server that's on 24/7, no crashes so far. Stability is beyond reproach which has surprised me.

Tiny revisions come by from time to time, we now have the A8-7670K that looks to be an A10-7700K with faster clock speed running at 3.6Ghz instead of 3.4Ghz (on the 7700).

This APU is sold as a 4 core processor, when in reality it is only a dual-core processor. It has 4 threads. Threads and Cores are NOT the same thing.
