My old HTPC Media PC board died on me half months ago ,
That rig was an FM2 ITX board with a A10-5700.
We just got AM4 ITX board available in local store, so I decided why not get a AM4 board to replace it. Sadly AM4 APU is not available and my ITX rig case can't fit in a graphic card. So I have to source for AM4 APU. Zen APU won't launch for another few months. The case is Antec ISK-310 if you want to know.
Finally I found some online store from Aliexpress (China) , and some of them selling AMD Tray CPU/APUs , as there are so many remark / fake CPU , I go for the one with "retail box" and warranty,
This is the one I bought it from China online store last week
When I saw the IHS said "Made in China"
I feared if it is a Fake / counterferit
However, it does work with my AM4 ITX board (Biostar B350GTN)
just to share some picture
I guess I can stick with it until Zen APU arrive
- The heatsink the boxset came with is similar with Athlon II x2 type (65W)
- The CPU support only DDR4-2133 and 2400 (Max) , can't boot with anything higher than DDR4-2400.
- The whole platform full load takes around 60W
- Performance wise it is compatible with A8-7600....
