The first gaming benchmarks of AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs with the latest AM5 BIOS, which is supposed to improve memory performance and support, have been published by Quasarzone and the results are not necessarily convincing. The latest AM5 BIOS is said to improve DDR5 memory support and overclocking of the Ryzen 7000 CPUs, but gaming performance [...]
On Tuesday, FinalWire announced that the latest version of its AIDA64 diagnostic and benchmarking software now supports AMD’s upcoming processors based on the Zen 5 microarchitecture. In addition, support for Intel’s upcoming processors, namely Meteor Lake, Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake, has been “enhanced.” According to the [...]
Hardware leaker All_The_Watts!! has published alleged benchmark results of AMD’s upcoming performance mainstream RDNA 3-based graphics cards Radeon RX 7700 and Radeon RX 7800 in 3DMark Time Spy. The performance numbers should be taken with a grain of salt, but for what it’s worth, both products show comparable performance compared to [...]
Work is currently underway on the next generation of AMD Ryzen 8000 APUs, codenamed Strix Point. Two new SKUs have already been added to the AMDGPU LLVM backend. The AMD Ryzen 8000 “Strix Point” APUs will appear in LLVM and feature RDNA 3.5 “GFX1150” & “GFX1151” iGPUs. It is expected that the AMD Ryzen 8000 [...]
Hardware leaker @wnxod published a supposed benchmark of the Core i7-14700K processor, which is supposed to show a configuration with 8 performance cores and an unknown number of efficient cores. However, earlier reports spoke of 12 efficient cores. The CPU is not recognized by any software yet, but it is identified as Raptor Lake HX/S. CPU-Z [...]
Lenovo presents the GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card in a mini-ITX form factor. The card will initially be available in the company’s PCs, but could possibly also be available in retail stores, as is often the case with Lenovo graphics cards. Lenovo’s GeForce RTX 4060 mini graphics card is a typical mini-ITX graphics card with a length [...]
The Raptor Lake refresh is expected to arrive this year as the 14th CPU generation for the desktop. But the real successor, Arrow Lake-S for desktop, is also increasingly materializing along with the new 800 series chipset, which again brings a new processor socket, of which I will soon publish the exact details including the drawings and data [...]
The GCC compiler has recently received patches for the upcoming Intel Lunar Lake and Arrow Lake product lines. A similar strategy from Intel has been observed as they provide preliminary support for future architectures much earlier than AMD. Unlike AMD, Intel tends to provide support well before the official launch. Phoronix reports that Intel [...]
AMD’s vice president says that AMD would not follow Intel’s approach with hybrid architecture and instead wants to bring Zen 5 to desktops as soon as possible. In the interview, David McAfee, corporate vice president and general manager of the Client Channel Business at AMD, talked about the company’s existing portfolio as well [...]
