The AMD A8-3850 APU belongs to the 'Lynx' Fusion A-Series class of processors. Our tests found that AMD supporters and games fans are in for a treat. ...
The new APU from AMD is sure to be a hit with gamers as most entry level games do not require a separate graphics card anymore. PrintCommentEmailDiggDel.icio.usRedditTwitter ...
Low cost of the platform, Connectivity (graphics, USB3, SATA3), Reasonable power consumption, GPUperformance
To wrap the performance figures up, it's no surprise that the new APU can't match the CPU-oomph of the Phenoms and higher spec Intel-models, but that's not really the point, either. The thing is, these A-series APUs are never even meant for high perfo...
Abstract: After the launch of the first mobile A Series APUs, AMD has now officially launched the desktop processor models. Only two have been launched for now, the A8-3850 and the A6-3650, and we’ve tested them both for you. For AMD, APUs are first and foremos...

So, you’re probably thinking it’s an APU, so it will be cheap, right? Wrong! The MOP for the A8-3850 is Rs. 6,900. Add to that the cost of a A75 Asus motherboard, which is Rs. 7,350, and you have a grand total of almost 14K, which is a lot. I can build...

AMD A8-3850 APU The AMD A-series APU is definitely a game changer (no pun intended). These APUs are capable of playing games at decent resolutions with a playable frame rate without the addition of a PCI-Express GPU. Gaming wasn’t a reasonable expecta...
