A test of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D with 3D V-Cache has already made it into the public, namely in an AIDA64 memory benchmark with the new High Efficiency mode. There was also a CPU-z screenshot leak to go with it. By the way, you can also see two Ryzen CPUs from our own stock in the picture, but I can already spoil that this is not an NDA breach [...]
Ready for the next CPU generation? ASUS equips AM5 motherboards for Ryzen 9000
Celestial AI describes its interconnect solution as a “supercharged Grace Hopper without the high cost”.
Arrow Lake-PS is coming: Intel unveils new LGA 1851 socket
First indications of Ryzen 9000: “Zen 5” CPUs discovered in chipset drivers
Category - CPU
The very first Ryzen 9 7945HX benchmark was spotted in the Geekbench database. This processor is part of AMD’s “Dragon Range” series with up to 16 Zen4 cores and 32 threads. The number of threads is just as high as in Intel’s 13th generation Core HX models. Generation, but the number of cores is lower (compared to 24). The [...]
Intel’s long overdue HEDT platform update is just around the corner and we already reported about it in detail. The Xeon W3400/2400 processors are thus finally about to be launched on the market for the desktop sector as well. The new series are based on Sapphire Rapids for the socket LGA4677 with optimizations for workstations. Some models [...]
The latest attempt at overclocking AMD's CPUs focuses purely on the integrated graphics solution and possible optimizations. It is worth remembering that the Ryzen 7000 desktop series has a tiny RDNA2 GPU component with only 2 compute units. That's not nearly enough to provide a decent gaming experience, but it also doesn't stop anyone [...]
The new AMD Ryzen 7000HX series, also known as “Dragon Range”, is based on the desktop chip and is currently one of the most powerful mobile processor families. These series with 45W+ are thereby intended for enthusiasts and “high-performance gaming laptops”. The Ryzen 7 7745HX isn’t the lowest SKU in the entire [...]
The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D is the upcoming 16-core/32-thread processor that comes with 64 MB of 3D V-cache. This is the flagship Ryzen CPU for the AM5 socket, which is scheduled for release later this month. The processor was tested on the ASUS X670E Hero motherboard and together with 32 GB of DDR5 memory with unknown speed. The Geekbench data shows [...]
The 12-core Ryzen 9 7900X3D is one of the three planned Zen4 desktop CPUs with integrated 3D V-cache. The processors each have an additional memory chip with 64 MB of extra cache, which should provide a noticeable boost during certain workloads, including games. The processor was just found in the Ashes of the Singularity benchmark database, where [...]
Let’s first look back: Intel’s nevertheless very successful HEDT line ended in 2019 with the Core X series, almost 3 years ago. Since then, the company has launched three complete generations of mobile and desktop CPUs, but completely ignored the HEDT platform. In the meantime, the Core desktop chips of the 13th generation offer a high [...]
Der8auer visited Intel labs where the company’s current and upcoming processors are tested. In doing so, he explains the structure of the Intel reference platform used for testing and the capabilities these motherboards offer Intel engineers. Most of these features are not available to users (and never will be). Der8auer shows Intel’s [...]
Four new PCI device IDs were found, which do not belong to any of the currently known NVIDIA graphics cards. The designations are in no way official, but have been suggested by the operators of the PCI ID database, who often receive initial information earlier. Allegedly, four new mobile GPUs will be launched soon, each with a different GPU model: [...]
The “Rocket Lake-S” series of the 11. Core generation is now on its final way to the virtual Intel graveyard. This week Intel released a “Product Change Notification” informing about the upcoming change. This affects a large number of desktop and workstation CPUs based on this architecture. The production shutdown process [...]
AMD has already proven how much 3D V-cache can benefit gamers with the Ryzen 7 5800 X3D and is now in the starting blocks to present its second-generation 3D V-cache chips with the Ryzen 7000 X3D. The Zen4 3D V-cache CPUs launching later this month could likely bring similarly massive performance gains in the gaming space, and masn is good at [...]
A Chinese tech outlet provides another leak showing AMD’s upcoming 8-core Zen4 architecture processors. Just yesterday, the same account published the very first results of the integrated Radeon 780M RDNA3 GPU in 3DMark TimeSpy, to today also publish the first CPU benchmarks. Going by the name Ryzen 7 7840HS, the processor is an 8-core / 16 [...]
Even though Intel will launch these new processors under the Xeon brand, they are the spiritual successors of the long-forgotten Core X series. The future Xeon W2400 and W3400 series will not only have many more cores based on the latest architecture, but also support all modern technologies like DDR5 or PCIe Gen5. This is undoubtedly an important [...]
The AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX is a 12-core, 24-thread processor based on the Raphael architecture (codenamed Dragon Range). This hybrid of mobile and desktop processor will probably power most high-end gaming laptops based on AMD hardware, such as Alienware m16/m18, ASUS ROG Strix or Lenovo Legion. According to AMD, these CPUs should work with TDPs of [...]
According to the AMD, the flagship Ryzen 9 7950X3D with 16 cores will cost the same as the "original" Ryzen 9 7950X with 16 cores at launch, which is $699. This processor will launch on February 28 along with the Ryzen 9 7900X3D, which is a 12-core version. AMD has priced this model at $599, which is $50 more than the 7900X's launch [...]
YuuKi was one of the first to publish Intel’s Sapphire Rapids engineering samples. No photos of the Sierra Forest processor have been released, but a photo of the new socket design has surfaced. However, it does not show the socket itself, but a protective cover with the inscription LGA-7529, which indicates a higher pin count than Sapphire [...]
The CPU-Z tool shows information about Intel’s new 13th generation Core Mobile series. Generation, which also includes the latest HX 55W models and the power-saving chips codenamed Alder Lake-N. There was an announcement for both product lines at CES 2023. Intel’s latest 24-core, 6 GHz processor, the Core i9-13900KS, is also now fully [...]
Today is finally the day – loyal readers won’t be surprised by this –, for Intel’s last and fastest LGA1700 CPU we also have binning data for you once more. Thanks to MIFCOM, we were able to run almost 200 chips through our testing routine again, and now you get to see the results. Plus, there’s a treat waiting for all (hobby) [...]
AMD unlocks OC for Ryzen 7000X3D or is this just another bug? AMD’s product pages can be quite misleading in parts. Earlier this month, the Ryzen 7000X3D pages already made headlines when AMD updated them with a February 14 launch date, only to later confirm that this was a mistake. Even a few weeks later, we still don’t know when [...]
