AMD A10-6800K Richland Overclocked Review

Sisoft Sandra

For this part of Sandra’s test we focus on the processor’s ability with Financial Analysis as well as the overall power management of the chips.

The overclocked A10 beats the stock results at financial analysis. Unfortunately for the 6800K, the way the results are weighted mean that Intel pulls ahead as the overall winner of this test.
We see a mixed bag of results when it comes to processor efficiency. The overclocked 6800K sees an increase in its multi-core efficiency over the stock system, though it still loses to the i3. In terms of both ALU and overall power management we see that out overclocked results begin to fall behind. This shall be due to the extra power needed for the performance increases.
