AMD AM1 Athlon + Sempron APUs. Thermal and Power Use Benchmarking the AMD Athlon 5350, Athlon 5150, Sempron 3850, and Sempron 2650 FSIb APUs on Ubuntu 14.04 Linux with the Linux 3.14 kernel and Mesa 10.2-devel Oinaf PPA. This archive contains the Linux power consumption, performance per Watt, and APU temperature data as monitored by the Phoronix Test Suite built-in system_monitor module. Benchmarks by Michael Larabel for a future article on Phoronix.com.
