AMD A10-7890K

About processor

The AMD A10-7890K processor is a solid choice for a budget-friendly desktop CPU. With a 28nm technology, 4 cores, and 4 threads, it offers decent performance for everyday tasks. The integrated Radeon R7 graphics model also provides good visuals for casual gaming and multimedia usage. One of the standout features of the A10-7890K is its relatively low TDP of 95W, which means it consumes less power and produces less heat compared to other processors in its class. This makes it a great option for those looking to build an energy-efficient system. In terms of performance, the A10-7890K holds its own for general computing tasks, and its Geekbench 6 scores of 546 for single core and 1314 for multi-core are respectable for a processor in this price range. However, it may struggle with more intensive workloads and high-end gaming due to its lower core count and older 28nm technology. Overall, the AMD A10-7890K is a reliable choice for budget-conscious consumers who prioritize energy efficiency and decent everyday performance. It may not be the best option for power users or hardcore gamers, but for light to moderate usage, it delivers good value for the price.
