For those that have been wondering about AMD Richland APUs, hopefully this article provides some guidance on the CPU side. The Radeon graphics testing will be coming up in another Phoronix article for both the open-source and closed-source Catalyst drivers. Other CPU/APU comparisons are also forthcoming.
You can compare your own system's performance to these results by simply running phoronix-test-suite benchmark 1306286-SO-AMDA1068015 once installing the Phoronix Test Suite.
