Futuremark's PCMark benchmarks are great for testing the overall performance of a system. Tests include processor performance, web browsing, spreadsheets and image manipulation to name a few, and the results should indicate how well the processors are affecting the overall system.
PCMark Vantage
PCMark Vantage gives us a mixed bag of results. Though the overall PCMark score follows the same trend as other benchmarks, with the Richland APU just beating the 5800K, and the i3 trailing behind a little more. However, when we look at the Gaming and Productivity results we see that the i3 trumps the other chips.
PCMark7
The Richland and the Ivy Bridge processors are pretty much neck and neck here, with the 6800K just taking the lead. We also see one of the biggest improvements for the 6800K over the 5800K, with the Trinity chip trailing a good 450 points behind its successor.

That APU seems like a great little chip, for the money!Quote
But I guess it makes more sense that this is just really a minor refresh, given that Kaveri is supposed to arrive towards the back half of the year.Quote
Bottom line - this is not a fair "real world test" who uses 1600mhz ram at 1333 mhz... REALLY.
I mean who even buys 1333mhz ram these days - NOBODY.
My conclusion is that you are just a bunch of intel lackeys...
Rerun the test fairly please.Quote
Josh did not have time to run faster mem tests, all results in this review we ran while he was here the other week. Adding in extra mem speeds would have required a: them all to match to be comparable and b: taken twice as long which was just not possible.
I can say in our testing 2133 was not achievable with the Richland APU on test today.Quote

Good job on this review Josh! I was actually surprised. In the first page(not trying to be picky) I felt there were way to many commas. I ain't no English major but seems too many were used
Keep up the good work
