AMD A8-3870K Processors Review
AMD A8-3870K – At the start of 2011 AMD made a first time released of their APUs in the form of E-Series. It is a processor featured multiple CPU cores and also being combined with a DirectX 11 capable graphics processor on the same chip. AMD E-series also bringing new features and performance to entry level systems of processors in these days. A few months later AMD then launched their A-Series processors. It is a set of midrange components that allowed people to take advantage of more cores and higher performance graphics of a processor in a more traditional style of build.
Although the AMD A-Series of APUs offered some overclocking options they certainly could not claim as a wanted processor that is being looking for by the people until now. With the release of the A8-3870K AMD then now have a processor which is aimed very much to those people who love tweaking and overclocking but can not quite afford the higher cost of AMD or Intel’s other components to fulfill their needs. Today, those people can take a look at the potential of the A8-3870K on its own and it is also in a dual graphics mode to see what it offers for Skyrim, StarCraft 2 and Star Wars: The Old Republic players, a great one actually for those game mentioned before.
AMD A8-3870K is made to be based on a 32nm production process and it contains four CPU cores and a DirectX 11 (DX11)–supporting Radeon HD 6550D GPU with 400 GPU cores that you would found it roughly hard enough in the middle of a budget range of AMD’s video products. This is a judging based on the previous generation’s naming scheme. There is 128KB of L1 cache and 1MB of L2 cache available per core of this AMD A8-3870K, and the APU also supports dual-channel of DDR3 memory at speeds of up to 1,866MHz. AMD A8-3870K requires a motherboard that uses the new FM1 socket in a relative side and it is based on either AMD’s A75 with an enhanced of USB 3.0 and SATA III support chipsets or A55 with USB 2.0 and SATA II support chipsets.
