Just found some Carrizo benchmarks (updated 2015-08-04) Here: http://www.notebookcheck.com/Carrizo-im-Test-Was-leistet-AMDs-A10-8700P.147092.0.html Google Translate to English: https://translate.google.com/transl...istet-AMDs-A10-8700P.147092.0.html&edit-text= There are 3 versions of Carrizo (for now): FX-8800P --/// 2/4 /// 2.1GHz /// 3.4GHz /// Radeon R7 /// 512 shader (GCN 1.2) @ 800 MHz /// 12-35 Watt A10-8700P /// 2/4 /// 1.8GHz /// 3.2GHz /// Radeon R6 /// 384 shader (GCN 1.2) @ 800 MHz /// 12-35 Watt A8-8600P -/// 2/4 /// 1.6GHz /// 3.0GHz /// Radeon R6 /// 384 shader (GCN 1.2) @ 720 MHz /// 12-35 Watt The benchmarks are for the A10-8700P. Enjoy!
Looks quite decent, considering. Remembering it's not the top range product being tested, extrapolating the results the FX-8800P seems quite capable considering the target market. Even though there will be no desktop processors, it would be good to see desktop targetted motherboards using the FX-8800P soldered to the board. This was rumoured to be a possibility, and I think it would be advantageous for those building HTPC's, and computers for normal workstation type use.
I'd slap a Carrizo on one of Zotac's mini-PCs any time. Can't wait to see how they turn out. I'll actually buy a Carrizo (not Carrizo-L) for my father's next computer, and will wait for Zen for my next computer.
And here are two Carrizo FX-8800P benchmarks: http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-R7-Carrizo-Benchmarks.144288.0.html /// Model /// CPU /// Memory / Core /// Memory /// GPU Memory /// Value /// /// AMD Carrizo Reference Platform FX-8800P 15W /// FX-8800P /// DDR3-1600 /// 15.10 Beta /// 1992 /// /// AMD Carrizo Reference Platform FX-8800P 35W /// FX-8800P /// DDR3-2133 /// 15.10 Beta /// 2753 /// Edit: Just to compare, this is the Desktop A10-7850K 95W APU score: /// A10-7850K Asus A88-XM-PLUS /// A10-7850K /// 16384 MB /// >=14.2 /// 2444 /// Edit 2: And more Carrizo benchmarks. This time, again the A10-8700P: http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=AMD+A10-8700P Average CPU Mark: 3910 Single Thread Rating: 1515 Quite on par with the Intel Core i5-3230M: Average CPU Mark: 3923 Single Thread Rating: 1582
Aaand more benchmarks. The article has been updated recently: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Carrizo-in-Review-How-does-AMD-s-A10-8700P-perform.147654.0.html
I think that both Carrizo and Kaveri systems are limited by the memory performance + API overhead as we've seen in Ashes of Singularity benchmarks, due to AMD's drivers.. Here are some more benchmarks for the FX-8800P 15W: - API Overhead test results are quite good, keeping in mind it is a 15W chip, at ~3.1M draw calls in DX12 and ~3.7M draw calls with Mantle - Seems like the CPU/GPU are underutilized, not sure what is the problem, maybe the memory
