AMD A8-6500T and A10-6700T are quad-core processors Pricing

[Youbetternot]

The AMD A8-6500T will be priced at $112 and AMD A10-6700T will be priced at $142

 

The main advantage of new Accelerated Units is lower 45 Watt TDP. To achieve it, AMD lowered operating and Turbo Core frequencies of the APUs, and also downclocked the integrated GPUs by 10% - 15%. The A8-6500T and A10-6700T processors run at 2.1 GHz and 2.5 GHz, and the Turbo Core feature can boost frequency up to 3.1 GHz and 3.5 GHz respectively. The parts incorporate HD 8550D and HD 8650D graphics, operating at 720 MHz. Remaining specifications are similar to current A8- and A10 models. The APUs have 4 cores, 4 MB L2 cache, and support for AVX and FMA3 instructions. The A8-6500T and A10-6700T microprocessors are priced at $112 and $142.

So basically a 6800k with lower power? Or is it slightly slower?

Slightly slower I am guessing, they are pretty cheap

Not really that cheap, since a 6800K costs $150.

Meh like 8 dollar cheaper for the A10 and 40 dollar cheaper for the A8

When building a computer on a tight budget then every dollar you can save counts.

Both are only $8 cheaper than their K variants.

Great CPUs for a server or a mining rig where you will need a free video port to monitor the system.

 

edit:  Also good for an htpc
