From the tests, we can see that 14.2 doesn’t do a ton for CPU tasks, but in the GPU arena, the new Beta drivers really shine. Even in games and GPU synthetic benchmarks that don’t use the Mantle API, 14.2 brought significant performance gains, much more on par with what I was hoping to see. In Battlefield 4, using the Mantle API, 14.2 resulted in a performance increase of over 40%.

These are the same drivers for discrete GPU's. You can download the drivers and check the performance gains for yourself.

Kaveri APUs would be cool in laptops. Lots of potential.

Seems pretty cool. I'd run some benchmarks on my 7790 if I could remember my own old benchmark scores in Bioshock.

Captain obvious....?

 

Well considering it's nowhere in the topic title nor the post itself...

The title is misleading, we all assumed it would be for discrete GPUs.

Yes, but Manufacturers don't see potential, they only see profits.
