I just wanted specifics by someone who actually has been using the A10 CPU day to day for a while, not silly benchmarks.

I know I can find those ON the usual suspect *cough* internet.

I haven't noticed much of a change from 1090T to FX-8350.

Oh yeah I have a MSI board which has heat warnings mentioned on their site, 890FX chipset, unfortunately the first one died, but the second was a new revision and had much more robust bios settings.

My CPU and GPU are both temp wise: glorious, I wouldn't push my luck with this rig, though.

If I was starting from scratch tomorrow, I think I'd go Intel again, but agree the Haswell's look like hasbins to compete with AMD's low prices.
