The numbers are on its website in the Ryzen CPU section of AMD sites.

I have to double check my store's signs, but I don't know if they have the numbers on them.

Most computers with AMD chips sold at stores use the A Series of APU like the A4, A6, A8, and A10 because APUs are cheaper, and come with a built-in video chip installed on the APU, so AMD APU computer does not need a dedicated video card to display video on a monitor. But, you can install a video card if you need faster performance than the built-in video on the APU.

The A4 is the slowest, A6 is faster than the A4, the A8 is faster than the A6, and the A10 is fastest of all the AMD APUs.

That's pretty obvious, how they stack up against the Intel brand though?

AMD A8 and A10 are sometimes used for building cheaper Gaming computer, so they are good enough for playing many PC games, and software programs.

AMD's CPU are sometimes similar in speed as as a Intel CPU which cost about the same as the AMD CPU when I look at the CPU comparison chart at https://www.cpubenchmark.net/desktop.html .

I suppose the only good reason for AMD is it keeps CPU prices fair and cheap?

I agree, AMD help keeps CPU prices fair and cheap. But, CPU may raise the prices on their new CPU and stop making as many cheap CPUs.

I read an article on a blog that AMD no longer wants to make as many cheap CPUs in the future, and not be known as the cheaper brand.
