With Audio Boost we're delivering the highest audio quality with the use of Creative Sound Blaster Cinema so you can enjoy crystal clear sound and music through 8-channel HD Audio.

But correct to pay for a full A10-7850K APU and then not see stealer Hybrid-Crossfire has no merit. If such an A10 and this mobo could be purchased for around $250 ($80-100 is the going rate for premium FM2 D4 ATX), and then paired with a 260X for another $130 that's a cost of $380. Then if Hybrid Crossfire set-up really could provide say bettering what thee 270X performance there’s something to consider. Be a nice to experiance the 260X and "True Audio" working with the mobo's Creative Sound Blaster Cinema.
I don’t see an i5-4430 Haswell 3.0GHz ($180), a newer Z78 mobo (~$100) and a nice 270X ($210) that’s approaching $500 providing the 30% more gaming that the Intel set-up eats in cost.
On the same note, the (US) price for the 7850K should stabilise at $169 at some point.Hah! Honestly, I knew they'd do it, I just didn't know when, hope it starts popping up in stores where I live soon tho.
Now all we need is something like a ASUS A88X RoG Hero, and the gang complete.FX as a CPU? Highly doubt it. It'd be stupid of AMD to do so. FX as a enthusiast line of APUs (as in, beyond A10)? Yes, quite possibly. Well, maybe not now, but next year/next socket, it's possible, and I'm looking forward to it.
Most people buying this don't plan to run games on Ultra settings. People should realize software is lagging so far behind hardware right now. Most of your extremely popular PC games are only mildly multithreaded at best.
