The first generation Ryzen is still a pretty impressive chip, but if you’re running a Ryzen 7 1700X, should you upgrade to a Zen 2 based CPU? As the title of this article probably hints, I’ve done the testing and the answers we’re left with are pretty intriguing. This follows on from my Zen.

The eighth console generation was a radical departure to what we saw in the ones which proceeded it as both Microsoft and Sony launched their upgraded, mid-generation refreshes to satisfy gamers who demanded consoles capable of running titles at 4K (or at least close to it) with improved graphical fidelity. Sony’s Playstation 4 Pro.

On March 2nd of next year, it will have been three years since the launch of the first-gen Ryzen processors and with their launch, AMD caused significant disruption to what consumers expect from mainstream processors. It’s easy to focus in on the core count increase, doubling the core count over Intel’s then flagship offerings,.

AMD’s Mark Papermaster has just confirmed that the companies engineers are currently in the design phase of the Zen 5 CPU architecture. Details were scarce on what we’ll see on the Zen 5 design, but during the EPYC Horizon executive event, AMD confirmed their leapfrog approach for chip design was paying off, and that.

After the launch of the Ryzen 3000 series and of course Rome, the other eagerly line of processors from AMD is the 3rd generation ThreadRipper processors, codename CastlePeak. A little bonus tidbit – ThreadRipper wasn’t originally planned by AMD, instead, it started as a passion project by a group of engineers at the company..

Regular viewers will know that a every month, we discuss how AMD is doing against Intel in the Mindfactory.de hardware sales race for the previous month. For those not in the know, Mindfactory.de is the biggest digital retailer in Germany, and every month the Reddit user ingebor compiles some very helpful graphs showing how.

AMD has built great momentum since the launch of the original Zen processors over two years ago, and despite their second-generation Epyc processors known as Rome only being announced days ago, the company are keen to emphasize its robust future roadmap. Judging from what the company have disclosed in both roadmaps and comments, the.

Well, this is definitely going to be a packed article, but turns out there are still lots of announcements to come from AMD. Let’s start things with upcoming motherboards for both the Mainstream and HEDT processors from the company. According to VideoCardz.com, there is an internal memo that is floating about at ASUS which.

Back in 2017, AMD shook up the desktop market by bringing 8 cores and 16 threads to the mainstream and decimated Intel’s then-current 7th generation (Kaby Lake) and it’s 4 cores when it came to multitasking. Sure, Intel did have the clock frequency advantage, but if you were doing anything more than gaming, Ryzen.

Intel and AMD are currently in a core count stalemate thanks to the launch of Intel’s Coffee Lake refresh and the I9-9900K. While it is considerably more expensive than that of the AMD Ryzen 7 2700X, it also performs better (particularly when single thread performance is concerned) – but times are changing. x https://youtu.be/3a-HCHICfQQ.

The AMD CES 2019 event for AMD was full of reveals of the upcoming Matisse (Ryzen 3000) series of processors. Lisa Su, the companies CEO in follow up interviews also confirmed leaks that AMD would continue its relentless pressure on Intel by upping the core count of its CPUs further with the next generation.

AMD’s CES 2019 conference has finally happened, and we’re left with as many questions as we have answers. Lisa Su took to the stage, and the presentation started with her running through some of the biggest and most important innovations AMD have bought to the market. It was clear from her mannerisms that she.

In about a weeks time, CES 2019 will kick off, and it’s all but certain AMD will be at the very least announce key details concerning the Ryzen 3000 series of CPUs (known as Matisse). These processors will, of course, feature the 7nm Zen 2 architecture, and according to whispers in the industry, we’ll.

Traditionally, AMD has launched their Ryzen series of mainstream products in April – but that looks set to change given a recent leak, which hints that the X570 platform is targeting a release of Computex 2019, which takes place between May 28th and June 1st. The slide has emerged from Gamer.com.tw, and is being reported to.
