Although we all look forward to the new generation of AMD processors Zen, But at the same time, manufacturer introduced a range of three new systems based on Steamroller and Excavator old kernels, new cooling system also introduced.
The range of products, there are two new hybrid processors from generation Kaveri (Godavari) - 4-core A10-7860K and 2 nuclear A6-7470K. Both have an unlocked multiplier, suitable for motherboards with Socket FM2 +, and they estimated at a TDP 65 W.
A10-7860K is like an enhanced version of A10-7850K - still we are dealing with 4 nuclei (2 modules) Steamroller, 4 MB L2 cache and 2-channel DDR3-2133 memory controller. Integrated graphics with the Radeon R7 8 The CU (512 SP units). Changed clock frequency-base decreased by 100 MHz to 3,6 GHz, a graphics core frequency increased to 757 MHz. All this while reducing the rate of TDP 95 Watts 65 W.

*An informal specification |
The processor was estimated at 118 dollars, so we should be worth about 3000 hryvnia - which means cheaper model of the A10 line (it will replace the model A10-7850K, A10-7700K и A10-7800). В комплекте будут добавлено новое охлаждение с запасом мощности 95W.
the market will soon also appear to be a top model A10-7890K, but the manufacturer has not yet revealed the official specs (part of the data showed the company Gigabyte).
A6-7470K it, in turn, 2-traction device, which is also based on the microarchitecture Steamroller - Clocked at 3,7 GHz in the standard mode and 4,0 GHz in Turbo mode. Besides, added 1 MB L2 cache, 2-channel DDR3-1866 memory controller and a graphics system with Radeon R5 4 CU blocks with frequency 800 MHz. In this way, can say, that we are dealing with a resupply A6-7400K.

Not known yet, how much will it cost processor. known, but, that will be added to complete the old cooling for models with a TDP of 65 W.
Noteworthy is also a completely new model Athlon X4 845, which is equipped with 4 Excavator cores with a frequency 3,5 GHz in the standard mode and 3,8 GHz with Turbo mode. This model has 2 MB of L2 cache and a 2-channel memory controller DDR3. As in the previous processor family Athlon, This model does not have an integrated graphics controller.

The new Athlon was estimated at $ 70, and Ukrainian stores will cost about 340 dollars. true, its a TDP is estimated at 65 AT, but it will be sold suited for models with TDP 95 W.
Cooling S2 quieter and higher, than the current model D2
Cooler Wraith will be added to the list of AMD's top processor – in the beginning with the FX-8370
But this is not the end of revelations, потому что производитель ввел в свой ассортимент процессор FX-8370 с новым охлаждением Wraith – цена такого набора составляет $ 200, while our market is cost about 5000 UAH.
Cooling Wraith it must also be added to other processors, but the manufacturer does not want to disclose details. However, we can say, The new version of the FX-8370 is already in our hands, and soon we will check what a new "desuperheater" AMD.
by the way, worth mentioning, the producer told me about updated versions of motherboards AM3 + and FM2 + assembly M. 2 и/или USB 3.1.
