Though there are still some hotly anticipated titles due in 2016, we might already have the game of the year on our hands. Overwatch has been on our radar for a while now but it recently blew up in a big way with an open beta that attracted over 9...

AMD's A10-7870K is the strongest integrated graphics CPU on the market, but the performance numbers still aren't all that impressive for modern...

Very recently we took a look at AMD's latest flagship APU – the A10-7890K – and walked away pretty darn impressed with the value it offered entry level and even mainstream consumers. One thing though that we did not go over in that review is what it has...

AMD launched the A10-7870K last year but now it comes bundled with the new near-silent Thermal Solution that's designed to handle TDPs of up to 125 watts. The A10-7870K is identical to the A10-7890K in terms of core counts and TDP but it is clocked...

After seeing how well the A10-7870K performs in most tasks, we can definitely say this is one of, if not the best options for an HTPC. A fantastic option for a living room...

My conclusion will be similar to other series A8 and A10 APU reviews we did for AMD. Until the new architecture arrives the current APU will remain a mediocre product in terms of...

Well, the time has come once again. I've got my grubby hands all over a nice clean piece of hardware and put it to the test. There is no denying that APU's definitely have their certain place amongst PC gamers but are they really worth it when...

Which processor now offers the most bang of your buck varies per price segment. If you have a very small budget, in our opinion it is best to find an Intel Pentium G4560, which, given its higher availability, is less of a challenge than it was a few...

So I think most people will admit that AMD has had a lot of wins this year with all of the Ryzen launches. As I found out in our 1700v7700K coverage the 7700K was still a great performing CPU, especially when looking at gaming performance. But with...

Well, the Ryzen 7 launch has a surprising amount of excitement and drama mixed together with the impressive numbers but with memory issues and game performance causing very polarized opinions on social media and on websites like Reddit. AMD fans...
