AMD A4 3400 APU Review

Ian Stevenson May 20, 2012 APU, CPU, Featured Tech Reviews, Graphics

Mafia II is a third-person action-adventure video game, the sequel to Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven. It is developed by 2K Czech, previously known as Illusion Softworks, and is published by 2K Games.

Again we opted to use the in game benchmark tool to put the system through its paces using the settings below:

Resolution: 1280×720
Shadows & Geometry: Medium
AF: 2X
PhysX: Off

Disappointing Hybrid Crossfire performance again. We would need to lower the image quality settings further to get this game completely playable. A higher powered discrete solution would help boost the frame rate further.

    £50 for the cpu and £50 for the gigabyte mobo is pretty good isnt it ? id always been put off bying a system like this for my tv as the motherboards were often well over £100 even if the processors were cheap.

    im tempted now. shall try and talk my credit card into accepting the charge.

    Nice setup on Dabs for these, makes it easier to work out where to get the bits,

    only thing is, they should have made some complete systems with memory, power supply etc, took a few quid from them. would have worked a lot better. seems a bit ‘half assed’ having a page with the A4’s and motherboards and nothing else. these are ideal for students who maybe need the help

    Hybrid crossfire has always sucked, glad to see it hasnt gotten better all of a sudden.

    not a bad deal for the price, but its probably slow as molasses for a work machine. Adding a cheap SSD might help.

    I have that proc. and Gigabyte MB and i am very satisfied with that. Plus i got Ati Saphyre graphic card with 1 GB. As it was said, it is really good for lite gaming, and very cheap. And @Brian, yes it can be overclocked! 🙂

    Is there such a thing as an intel atom quad core? The 6450 is pretty puny so really adds not very much except heat and cost. A 6670 or better would kick things up a notch/
