AMD A10-7800 with Radeon R7 Series vs AMD A10-8700P with Radeon R6 Graphics: Comparison
A10-7800 with Radeon R7 Series vs A10-8700P with Radeon R6 Graphics: the p-core boost clock difference
They are built to different briefs, and p-core boost clock shows it, A10-7800 with Radeon R7 Series Up to 3.9 GHz against A10-8700P with Radeon R6 Graphics Up to 3.2 GHz. Add l2 cache to that, 4 MB on the A10-7800 with Radeon R7 Series versus 2 MB on the A10-8700P with Radeon R6 Graphics, and the pattern holds. There is a split on igpu as well, AMD Radeon R7 Graphics on the A10-7800 with Radeon R7 Series versus AMD Radeon R6 Graphics on the A10-8700P with Radeon R6 Graphics. Market segment is not the same on both, Desktop on the A10-7800 with Radeon R7 Series versus Laptop on the A10-8700P with Radeon R6 Graphics. There is a split on base power as well, 45/65W on the A10-7800 with Radeon R7 Series versus 15 W on the A10-8700P with Radeon R6 Graphics.
Who each one is for
The A10-7800 with Radeon R7 Series is the one to take for A-Series platform upgrades or repairs and budget legacy builds, though it is not built for modern gaming or productivity workloads and new builds. The A10-8700P with Radeon R6 Graphics suits A-Series platform upgrades or repairs and budget legacy builds, though it is not the pick for modern gaming or productivity workloads and new builds.
Where the two are identical
Everything else lines up. Total cores, performance cores, efficiency cores, total threads and integrated graphics read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 3 further specifications as well.
