Which is better CPU APU Series

[Joseph (Seph) Cabayacruz]

Good day,

 

I've been reading about AMD Processors specifically in APU Series.

Which is better?
 

A10-7890K or Athlon X4 880K (Godavari).

 

is it like, more benefits that could have?

does a10 outweighs Athlon X4 or what?  

 

since i was reading it, I become to be skeptical of what i'd read about... 
help

A10 has better graphics capabilities, the Athlon has better CPU capabilities.

 

Basically, if you're gonna get a GPU better than the R7 250/260 or so, go for the Athlon.

If your getting a dGPU the Athlon

Actually i had A10-7860k and r9 390X like for the whole time already heheh... i also realise that.. i should have had bought Athlon X4 in the first place. Just a quick thing, what about the features of Athlon X4 880K. Does it support latest API's like VULCAN, Directx12, then mantle and OpenGL and OpenCL?

i thought api support was for the gpu

if im not mistaken

if im not mistaken the athlon isnt an apu since it doesnt have onboard graphics its a regular cpu 

[EPPHO]

Athlon is not an APU

[Darel321]

A10-7890K and Athlon X4 880K are the same thing... the differenci is the apu that have a gpu inside... thats all.. architecture are identical soo if you want to have a computer without dedicated gpu buy the apu if not get the athlon...

It supports all mentioned API's IIRC. Last time I read about it though, Mantle only helped with lower end GPU's (and the last time I remember hearing about it was on BF4, I think AMD switched to Vulcan and DX12)
