Wow, that performance is much better than I expected! I just assumed that the previous FLOSS Kaveri tests had dpm enabled, but I'm glad that I was mistaken. I plan to upgrade my a10-5800k as soon as Kaveri outperforms it, and I guess I won't have long to wait after all.

Well then perhaps I'd like to see a difference between AMD A10-5800K and AMD A10-7850K with the DPM and color tiling turned on just to see what it's like.
And besides, I don't think there are any discrete CPUs that are available with FM2 and FM2+ sockets.
I'll be waiting for AMD Carrizo APU which will debut next year as I'm currently holding on to AMD A10-5700. Right now, Kaveri does bring in some good gaming performance which I like. I do play Portal using my Linux 3.13 kernel and Mesa 10 and I get about 60 FPS and it does go down to 30 sometimes. My resolution is 1920x1080. All the graphics settings are set to high with no AA in my 47" TV.
And by the way, how do I know if color tiling is on? I don't have xorg.conf in /etc/X11.

The problem is that I can not change the voltage or latecy or practicly anything. It does not give me any options when I click "Enter" on it. It is a BIOS bug, that I would like to be cofirmed by someone that own this board.
P.S. Sorry for the offtopic.

Let's compare Catalyst:
OpenArena 0.8.5
RadeonSI: 129.93fps
Catalyst: 132.37fps
OpenArena 0.8.8:
RadeonSI: 36.10fps
Catalyst: 29fps
Unigine Sanctuary (1280x1024):
RadeonSI: 34.51fps
Catalyst: 32.88fps
Unigine Tropics (1280x1024)
RadeonSI: 22.57fps
Catalyst: 24.06fps
Xonotic (low):
RadeonSI: 139.58fps
Catalyst: 162.75fps
Xonotic (high):
RadeonSI: 69.67fps
Catalyst: 63.58fps
GPUTest Plot3d:
RadeonSI: 8272 points
Catalyst: 10471 points
GPUTest Furmark:
RadeonSI: 571 points
Catalyst: 329 points
That's what I call impressive
Good job AMD!

[QUOTE=Слободан;392754]I see that you have (in this test) the same motherboard that I have (Gigabyte F2A88XM-D3H). I am having a lot of difficulties with this motherboard's BIOS.
Can you, please, try some things to confirm those issues for me?
Issues are:
Firts, CPU is at 100% load in BIOS (version F4 and F5). It reaches higher temperatures than in OS during gaming.[quote]
This isn't really uncommon - many CPUs are, for whatever reason, under some form of constant load when in the BIOS.
Second, when I enable X.M.P. 2400 (I have 2x4 GB Kingstone HyperX Beast 2400 MHz CL11 RAM), OS won't boot. It only works with X.M.P. 1600 and 2133. I saw in other test that you also have (or had, at least) the same RAM.
And, third, the worst one, is that I can not change any values in BIOS (like 2/3). For example, I can not change latency for RAM. I have set it to "Manual" or "Advance manual" instead of "Auto", and those values turn blue (from gray) so I should be able to change them now, but when I press "Enter" nothing hapens (no options apear, no drop-down menu, nothing). And that is the issue with like 2/3 of BIOS setttings/values.
