Kaveri-generation AMD processors have become a new landmark in the development of hybrid solutions: these APU graphics cores will combine with the GCN architecture and computational modules Steamroller. AMD will start shipping these processors this year, but in the hands of ordinary users APU will only appear in February 2014.
Meanwhile, testing engineering samples Kaveri is still in August.
It is noteworthy that, if we accept the result of the processor AMD FX Bulldozer microarchitecture as 100%, in operations with integer data superiority Piledriver microarchitecture calculated value of 2.9%, while Steamroller shows an increase of 34.5%. Note that the tested two-module configuration (4 cores) running at 1.8 GHz.
With floating-point Bulldozer and Piledriver are approximately at the same level, Steamroller is almost 15% faster. Related Products :
