Upgrade for A4-4000

Yeah, what's up with that? Need an APU on AM4 platform, STAT!

Heaven knows what AMD 's real plan on BR family. On the latest AMD video blog, Lisa Su mentioned about BR for DIY users will come later this year. Well, that means AMD doesn't bother at all because they was available since Q3 2016 and somehow they keep pushing back the release schedule for DIY users. Personally, I've been fed up with BR bs and wait for RR instead.

It's still among the fastest though. Considering 7890K is just clock bump and all of Bristol Ridge is still MIA for DIY user. 2018 can't come soon enough.

A10-5800K from 2012 is the longest-lasting processor I've seen that doesn't show its age at all, even for 2018. Graphics still faster than Kaby Lake.

Yea , What He said ! Double STAT !

What is the point of all those Video outs on a $200+ Motherboard if you're going to put a Mere 8c/16t CPU in it which would force you put a discrete GPU in anyhow ?

AMD gave some small hints about Ryzen 3 as well.
When we got our information from AMD, prices were still being decided, but the official launch day will be July 27th.

For users keen on Bristol Ridge information, I am still poking AMD. I’m still being told that it will be launched into the retail channel for consumers, but not at this time.

It's basically the very same Piledriver core that also used in latest FX CPU, so actually it's not slow at all. It will only show its age when you do some benchmarking on it. And also VLIW3 GPU had its support ended, so it's just matter of time when new OS is released in the future and it won't be supported from the get go (at least there will be some teething problems).
