AMD announces its FreeSync compatible A10-7870K APU, also known under project codename Godavari. The A10-7870K APU, a quad-core CPUs with eight activated Radeon cores totaling towards 512 shader processors. The APU memory controller these days supports up to DDR3-2133 and 2400 MHz with selected memory MHz memory speeds. 

So with Godavari people had silent hopes that this would be a new APU architecture, nope. It was merely a project name that got blown our of proportions on the web, by the usual websites. The AMD A10-7870K Black Edition (Godavari) Flagship APU now is released. Retailers are listing this APU which will cost around a 140 USD and 129 USD for OEMs. You will have noticed that this SKU is using the 7800 series naming, not 8000 as earlier expected and rumored. 
 

Godvari architecture is in fact an update to what you guys have known and learned as the Kaveri / Excavator architecture CPU cores combined with Graphics CoreNext 1.2 based stream processors seated into the integrated GPU inside the APU.It will support higher speed DDR3 controllers allowing 2133 MHz as default using up-to 2400 MHz with AMD affiliated memory. There will be up to four x86 cores to be more specific, along with up to 512 stream processors per integrated graphics processing unit. The sheer difference for the 7870K will be that is is tweaked to be faster, the APU with a newer stepping will have a 3.9 GHz baseclock and can turbo on its dynamic boost clock frequency towards 4.1 GHz. The integrated graphics is a notch faster as well, coming from 720 MHz it is now clocked at 866 MHz.

The latest iteration will be compatible with FreeSync monitors.
