Last month, we finally got our first glimpse of the long-awaited Loongson 3A6000 processor, which was developed specifically for the Chinese PC market. The preview showed that the chip can certainly keep up with the newer desktop CPUs from Intel and AMD in terms of instructions per clock (IPC). Further tests are now available that demonstrate the [...]

It seems that AMD’s AM4 CPU platform is far from having reached the end of its possibilities. This can be deduced from a possible information leak from the Persian medium sakhtafzarmag. According to the leak, AMD is planning at least five new SKUs, including the Ryzen 7 5700X3D, Ryzen 5 5600X3D, Ryzen 5 5600GT, Ryzen 5 5500GT and Ryzen 7 [...]
According to the latest information from Coelacanth-Dream, the Arrow Lake CPUs from Intel will probably be equipped with an Arc Xe-LPG GPU, which is a slightly improved version of the one already found on the Meteor Lake CPUs. However, this GPU is said to offer improved AI acceleration, which is achieved by the addition of XMX units. Due to this [...]
Another CPU generation, another binning session along with an article for you all! We also had the pleasure of opening up almost 600 silicon loot boxes for the launch of Intel’s 14th generation and today we have the results. The data spans all new 6 overclockable “K” SKUs, with additional new 13900 chips for comparison, IMC tests are back [...]
Es sind mittlerweile erste Benchmarks des Intel Core i7-14700HX “Raptor Lake-HX Refresh” Prozessors aufgetaucht und sie zeigen eine vielversprechende Leistungssteigerung im Vergleich zu seinem Vorgänger. Der Intel Core i7-14700HX ist der Nachfolger des Core i7-13700HX und gehört zur 14. Generation der Raptor Lake-HX Refresh CPU-Familie [...]
Intel’s upcoming generation of Arrow Lake desktop CPUs could have an advantage in terms of instruction set support over their mobile Arrow Lake H siblings. According to Intel’s 50th Future ISA Guide, Arrow Lake’s ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) will be different between desktop and laptop platforms. This is because the 2nd [...]
It is an impressive performance that Intel’s Core Ultra 9 185H “Meteor Lake” CPU shows in the latest benchmarks. Nevertheless, there is of course still room for improvement. After all, the previous results in Geekbench 5 were rather disappointing, as the chip could barely outperform the predecessors of the last generation Core i7 [...]
Intel recently introduced the ultra-low-power processors of the Meteor Lake series, which leads to a much more complex naming compared to the previously known 1st Gen Core Ultra. For example, the Intel Meteor Lake Core Ultra 7 164U and Core Ultra 5 134U models feature a design with a power consumption of 9W, but stand out with a different name [...]
AMD arbeitet aktiv an der Entwicklung von Linux-Treibern für seine RDNA 3.5 und RDNA 4 GPUs. Die RDNA 3.5 GPUs werden in den Ryzen 8000 CPUs und APUs im kommenden Jahr verwendet, während die RDNA 4 GPUs in den Ryzen 9000 CPUs und APUs im Jahr 2025 erwartet werden. Die RDNA 3.5 GPUs basieren auf der “GFX 11.5” IP, die auf der [...]
AMD’s Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX is now officially the fastest workstation CPU to date, according to the latest performance tests. In the process, AMD’s 96-core Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX outperforms the Intel Xeon, leading in all performance measurements and scoring high in the Cinebench benchmark. The AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO [...]
Much helps much, my grandma used to say. And before you throw something away, it’s better to make something new out of it. So say my grandma and Intel. After Raptor Lake is before Arrow Lake, and so the Raptor refresh comes almost exactly one year later. Says Intel and my grandma is silent. And so, in addition to a bit more clock, at least [...]
Unboxing is actually relatively uncool and also the main or secondary occupation of self-proclaimed influencers. So this is something that usually offers you no nutritional value, not even our readers who finally (and only) want to see facts. But of course I use this opportunity anyway, also to remind you that normally exactly one day after such [...]
Is Intel possibly planning an update of its Arc Alchemist GPUs? For example, new PCI IDs were recently added to the current Linux driver, which could well indicate a future update. The current lineup includes five products: Arc A770, Arc A750, Arc A580, Arc A380 and Arc A310. All of these GPUs use the Alchemist GPU architecture (ACM-G10 / ACM-G11 [...]
AMD recently introduced the Ryzen 3 7440U “Phoenix” APU, the only Zen 4 quad-core chip released so far. The first benchmarks of the processor have now surfaced on Geekbench and show quite promising results. The Ryzen 3 7440U is the entry-level Phoenix APU in the Ryzen 7040 stack and features 4 Zen 4 cores, 8 threads, a base clock of 3 [...]
Intel’s upcoming Arrow Lake-S desktop CPUs are said to be particularly efficient with power limits of 125W for the PL1, 177W for the PL2 and 333W for the short-term PL4 as the absolute upper limit for unlocked SKUs. This is evident from a leaked diagram that shows a special Arrow Lake-S desktop CPU with 8 P-cores based on Lion Cove and 16 E [...]
ASUS has begun rolling out the brand new AMD AGESA 1.0.8.0 BIOS for AM5 motherboards, which includes support for the upcoming Ryzen “Phoenix” APUs. Potential AMD Phoenix desktop launch as ASUS releases AGESA 1.0.8.0 BIOS with Ryzen 7000 “Phoenix” APU support Months went by without any updates on the desktop APU side, but it [...]
Support for Intel’s next generation Arrow Lake NPU has already been integrated into Linux. This is an important milestone for AI integration in CPUs, as it also allows Linux users to take advantage of the AI capabilities of the new CPUs without additional hardware. Arrow Lake’s NPU is a dedicated AI engine optimized for tasks such as [...]
Intel has clarified that Meteor Lake P-Cores and E-Cores are architecturally very similar to Raptor Lake. The Redwood Cove P-Cores and Crestmont E-Cores are very similar to the Raptor Cove P-Cores and Gracemont E-Cores. The biggest change is the move to the Intel 4 process node. Intel 4 is a 4nm process that offers higher efficiency and [...]
AMD has published new details about the next Ryzen 8000 and 9000 processor generations. The Ryzen 8000 processors will be based on the new Zen 5 architecture and will be launched in the first half of 2024. They will feature up to 32 cores and 15% IPC increase over the Ryzen 7000 processors. The Ryzen 9000 processors will then be launched in the [...]
What hasn't been the noise in the leaf and video forest in recent weeks. There was even talk of a VRM disaster or a TIM gate (heat paste instead of lot), but if you look at everything carefully and carefully, the G... Thermal p aste instead of solder One of the reasons for the whole cooling problem is Intel's use of inappropriate (but arguably [...]
The latest version of CPU-Z now supports the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7000WX CPUs that will be part of the upcoming Storm Peak platform. This offers an early look at the new CPU generation that is expected to dominate the workstation segment. CPU-Z and similar applications are always a good way to learn about CPU series before they are released [...]
NVIDIA and TSMC are closing a deal for 3nm AI GPUs, and so the green giant will have its next generation of AI GPUs manufactured on TSMC’s 3nm process. The B100 “Blackwell” GPUs are expected to hit the market in the second half of 2024 and offer a significant performance boost over the current generation. The Blackwell GB100 GPUs [...]
Intel plans to release the 14th generation of its Core processors this year. The Meteor Lake processors are planned for laptops, and the Raptor Lake Refresh CPUs for desktops. The exact reason for the decision to release the Meteor Lake processors only for notebooks this year is unknown. However, Intel has confirmed that these processors will also [...]
The specifications and first benchmarks of the Intel 5th Generation Emerald Rapids, more precisely the Xeon Platinum 8580 CPU, have been published by YuuKi_AnS and picked up by the colleagues from WCCFTECH. It is already known from an earlier leak by YuuKi_AnS that the Intel 5th generation Xeon Platinum 8580 CPU will feature an impressive 60 cores [...]
Of course, it is not a real leak today, because I had already published almost all details in the article linked below. However, the documents have been revised and supplemented several times in the meantime, so that I can offer you drawings with higher quality today and add the CPU and the upcoming 800 chipset, which are not yet online in this [...]
