The Core i5-3570K was included mainly for the HD 4000 Graphics and the A10-5700 because it’s a flagship APU, were either of them discussed in the text as competitors or even used to make our comparison? The answer is no.
You say most of the tests were about game performance, if you mean most of the tests in the gaming performance section then yes you are right. PCmark 7 is not a gaming benchmark, nor is Excel, WinRAR, Photoshop, Handbrake, Video Master Works or even the x264 Benchmark. The definition most shouldn’t be used when you are talking about 4 out of 15.
We are not benchmaking this APU against Battlefield. Battlefield was one of the games used to show how the A4-5000 performs in relatively modern games and how that performance compares to the competition. The game itself doesn’t really matter as long as both competing products are run under the same conditions.
Also Fraps is not an outdated benchmarking technique and we will continue to use it in the future. We show frame time performance in our higher-end GPU articles and we believe Fraps to be accurate regardless of what other sites might be going with FCAT for example.
We said in the conclusion that the A4-5000 is perfect for web surfing and watching HD 1080p movies, again you must have missed that.
No one cares what you would or wouldn’t run on a tablet (not that this is a tablet only processor, we tested with a notebook :S). What is important is that we showed how the A4-5000 compares to its competitor in a number of tests, the margins were all much the same so you can safely assume for single and multi-threaded tasks that the Intel Pentium U2117 is faster. For GPU related tasks the A4-5000 is better but not by much and not enough to be useful.
Overall both are ideal for surfing the web and watching HD content as noted in the conclusion. Ohh and you can click the edit button to correct any mistakes in your posts.
