I found the review itself quite disappointing. Where are power consumption measurements? Where are comparable discrete-gpu+cpu comparisons? Dual-gpu results?
If you care enough to know what a discrete gpu is, this is probably not the CPU for you. While this might be the best integrated GPU to come around yet, it's not going to offer the performance of a good discrete card.
the benchmarks include comparisions with a Radeon HD6750 which is an older entry level card that performs significantly better. I don't think it would make sense to put the APUs up against even more powerful discrete GPUs as the gap would be huge.
I agree. They compared the GPU to Intel Iris GPU, but only on certain benchmarks. Seems like the meat of the review was thrown together and they attempt to distract from that with excruciating levels of technical detail.
