Radeon Vega 8 vs Radeon R7 Graphics IGP (APU A10-7850K)
Summary
Reasons to consider Radeon Vega 8 |
| This is a much newer product, it might have better long term support. |
| Higher theoretical gaming performance, based on specifications. |
| Supports Direct3D 12 Async Compute |
| Supports FreeSync |
| Supports ReLive (allows game streaming/recording with minimum performance penalty) |
| Supports TrueAudio |
| Based on an outdated architecture (AMD GCN), there may be no performance optimizations for current games and applications |
Reasons to consider Radeon R7 Graphics IGP (APU A10-7850K) |
| 50 watts lower power draw. This might be a strong point if your current power supply is not enough to handle the Radeon Vega 8 . |
HWBench recommends Radeon Vega 8
Based on theoretical specifications.
