Those look interesting but i still haven`t figured out something, are those supposed to be entry level or are they simply catered for those who want a simple gaming machine? And i hope AMD doesn`t jump numbers and present their new CPUs as 9xxx series...

Why not both? It's got all the features necessary for entry level but it's got the performance for anyone who isn't serious about gaming or graphics. In any case, we can't really conclude much from these results, since we don't know the detail level (other than 1080p), we don't know the memory configuration, and we don't know the base frame rate. The fact it's measured in percent increase is grim considering a 100% increase of 14FPS is still a crappy frame rate. But as I always say about APUs: just turn down AA and textures, and suddenly performance will get a whole lot better.

I think they most likely will. It sure is annoying (and rather pointless) that they keep doing that.

should be interesting, being 5/4nm monolithic die memory overclocking should be a treat >8000mt/s? daily perhaps, should help the igp loads.

Is it sad that APU's are the thing i get most excited for in pc hardware anymore as its the most affordable and fun to tweak out of anything else out or coming out?

Guessing that the jump in performance is due to going from DDR4 to DDR5, rather than the GPU architecture. Although that will probably bring much better efficiency.

Now just need prices and availability and I'm ready to build some new systems....

Im more excited about Zen5 CPU's next year. 🙂
