I don't watch movies but edit 4k files... so CPU power is also important.If all you wanted was lower price and watching movies, how does the 15W TDP affect you?

Any word on Carrizo Itx Boards yets? Time Frame we are look at? I couldn't find anything new but maybe one of you insiders know something?
just picked up carrizo, tell me what you want to test.
Please test Handbrake first!! also what variant did you score 15w or 35w and is it in laptop form or itx form? I will literally shit bricks if you got a itx.. could you please post some pics maybe??
Model of laptop and specs ??
I spent some time today researching and compared the only benchmark available from notebookchecks for the A10-8700p at 15W. I can see that the Broadwell I5-5200U at 15W destroys the AMD APU basically in every single task, except for graphics of course.
So considering that laptops with same specs except half HDD size (don't really care) are priced the same and that Skylake will also support HEVC in hardware I don't really see the point for me (and everyone else who doesn't care about games) why I should give my money to AMD for less performance.
I bet that the only systems with 35W will be those high priced gaming laptops.
Is this thinking right?
Care to explain?maybe, but for me the amd system is different that what else is out there and I see value in that.

Sounds like good reasoning. I think that AMD is having trouble getting the laptops to be competitive in price. (Or widely available, for this matter.)
Personally I would still get a Carrizo for gaming purposes if one was offered in a 11-12" laptop.
I'm still sore about the big review sites (such as Anandtech) not reviewing Carrizo even though it's been available to buy for a while.
Aida64 mem/cache and instruction latency tests would be nice to get some arch related differences.just picked up carrizo, tell me what you want to test.
According to The Stilt, clockspeed/watt favors GV-A1 Kaveri at clockspeeds above 2.6 GHz.
And if you just want ITX there is plenty of options. Even regular Kaveri chips from AMD as well or pretty much all chips from Intel.

This should create some text files.These lists were created by AIDA64 Instruction Latency dump feature. [...] You can create such dump in AIDA64 by right-clicking on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window -> CPU Debug -> Instruction Latency Dump. It fully works on trial version, too.
Right now I own a MSI A88X Mini-ITX board (bought it on a rare super sale so the cost was reasonable), but normally this form factor for FM2+ is rather pricey.
I think having BGA Mini-ITX for Carrizo would solve some of those cost issues (at the expense of some features like SATA ports).
Thanks. So in PhotoWorxx your FX-8800P nearly beats a higher clocked Phenom II X4 Black 940?
There is also a hidden feature to get the instruction latency dumps.

You might be the first to provide these Excavator numbers to this site:

And I'll dig out my old BD analysis tables to compare the results to see any AVX or other improvements.
So, seems that AMD Carrizo ended to be as crappy as Broadwell... Definately 2015 is an age to forget in the tech world.
And that Memory bandwidth... Far worse than a Nehalem!
So Bristol Ridge won't reach Sandy Bridge levels.... What a dissaster.
BGA wont solve what is a volume problem. Remember how utterly tiny AMDs share is.
