Michael, what memory did you use? As the igpu uses main memory the speed of ddr3 has hefty impact for gaming benchmark results.

AMD A10-5800K "Trinity" APU On Linux

EDIT -- my bad... the sticker on the RAM said 4GB but when I looked up the part number it was actually a set of 2 2GB sticks, so the table is correct. Post below updated.
The pic of the motherboard suggested 2 x 2GB sticks at 1600 :

It would be nice if Phoronix could include an Ivy Bridge system in the next graphics comparison, since this is an APU.
I'd be interested to see how they stack up against each other in linux, not just how it compares to discrete cards.
I realize it means the CPUs will have different speeds, but you can pick some i3 ivy bridge cpu to stay close - or just pick any ivy bridge you have and list the prices for each so we can compare them.

You're curious about the setup, I can accept that. But I just don't buy AMD's talk that CPU power has ceased to matter right where they started failing to compete.
Still, I'd rather PRIME with the features of Lucid Virtu MVP as opposed to crossfire, ultimately.

To everyone saying crossfire would be useless for this APU, are you aware of the "Hybrid Crossfire" feature? It would be nice to know if it works on Linux and what performance would be like when pairing this APU with a Radeon HD 6670.
