news 28 Posted August 18, 2016 Hello editors, Today we revisit AMD's A10-7870K APU, which earlier this year was repackaged with a new "near-silent" 125W thermal solution which is essentially the same as the Wraith cooler but without the LED-backlit fan shroud. We've tested the new thermal solution to see what cooling improvements it has to offer for the A10-7870K when compared to the original stock cooler. https://www.neoseeker.com/Articles/Hardware/Reviews/amd-a10-7870k-apu/ "In order to find out just how much better the 125W thermal solution will > perform, I am going to test the A10-7870K APU mounted on a Gigabyte > F2A88X-UP4 motherboard provided by AMD with a set of 16 GB (2 x 8) DDR3 RAM > modules set at 2133 MHz speed. I will then run thermal and fan speed tests > so a comparison of the results will provide a meaningful data set to > compare the near-silent 125W cooler to an older model AMD cooling solution." > Thanks as always for any linkage!
