AMD A12-9800 Review: Infecting The AM4 Platform

[MaikuTech]

I am still sitting with an FX 4170 and people nag me to upgrade but it does exactly what I need it to.I will never use the full potential of a Ryzen

When you start to run the games from late 2015 uptil 2017.
They require a more beefier cpu/gpu to handle all and not lag much.
You will upgrade to ryzen or core I series, if you have enough money just to buy a real good cpu.
Go ahead and plan a new build for yourself, the reason why I finally left fx series.
dbxenoverse 2, project cars, war frame, paladins, BF-Series, dirty bomb.
Emulation of gamecube and ps2 games really do need the power.
Since I heard alot of good things from intels haswell line.
The performance it had for desktop productivity and gaming was more better than fx anything.
Having some cash from xmas that was a good time for me to step up from fx in janurary.
The mobo and cpu cost me 200 bucks total, haswell was the most costly 145 but it does too well.
Have fun building up for your kids and teach about computers before they get too old to not listen to you much anymore.

tbh.I run gamecube and ps2 games relitavily well on my rig.Well the kids are having a blast on the pc.Reason why I never went ryzen for them was First.It's a starter pc and they will work to get it upgraded.Second its just a benchmark for am4.So it can be upgraded if we wish to do so.My personal pc are coming middle of next year somewhere.Most prob will be a 1600x as I am getting my msi 1050ti gaming x 4gb next week for my bday present.(Not the best gfx card)but price to performance here its the best value as buying a 1060 3gb would be around 1.2k more and its just really not worth it.

I am not a hardcore gamer but gonna need the beefed up cpu for video editing etc later.

Oh yeah you're gonna need a good cpu to handle video processing well and what not.
Out of the two companys, I suggest amd for that, they're much better at handling windows/linux programs much more better.
I recommend a 6 core machine if you're a power user such as myself, game and work at the same time while not suffering.

I see that you commenced the test with NVIDIA GPU's. Where are some AMD Radeon GPU's?
Is this what you call reliable benchmarking? a12-9800 vs Core i7 + Nvidia Titan? Seriously?

And in addition... Intel GPU's with graphics can do absolutely nothing in the gaming sense. For that amount of money I think this APU is quite good. You can buy Intel one for double or triple cost that AMD, but it will do **** itself in games.
