With Raptor Lake, Intel now also ends the era of monolithic processors. This of course comes with another decent performance boost and it will be the purpose of this review to compare the new CPUs with AMD’s new Ryzen 7000 family. That is definitely worthwhile, because Intel would quite like to have the so-called gaming crown back. The [...]

AMD’s new Ryzen 7000 desktop CPUs, based on the Zen4 micro-architecture, still use the same chiplet design as their predecessors, with a few small but not negligible changes. Igor already gave details about this in yesterday’s big review. Today we want to look at how to configure the new CPUs as optimally as possible and for this we [...]
Today I have a glimpse into the near future of RAM technology for you, and as is so often the case in the computer hardware industry, it comes from China, where SK Hynix’s new DDR5 memory ICs are already available for purchase today. With a proxy like Superbuy, some patience and even more trust, you can import such a Hynix A-Die kit to [...]
Why do you think there was no HD 7830, but the rather unloved HD 7790? We had reported in a news item back then that we came across a board during the test of a new Radeon HD 7850 in the rare singleslot design, which didn’t contain a normal Pitcairn chip with 1024 shader units, but a weaker engineering sample with only 768 shader units [...]

Even though AMD has not explicitly sampled the new old Ryzen CPUs with Zen3 core, many of the new CPUs have already reached retailers. The top model, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D (8 cores, 16 threads, up to 4.5 GHz, 4 MiB L2 cache, 96 MiB L3 cache) should become available in rather homeopathic doses with an MSRP of about 450 dollars. Our own inquiry to [...]

DDR5 is known to be rarer and harder to come by than some GPUs at the moment. Therefore, the question arose for me: Does an Intel CPU of the 12th generation, codename Alder Lake, really need the new memory standard, or is the performance with DDR4 on a similar level? Alder Lake now also uses two separate memory controllers (IMCs) for DDR4, one for [...]
The basic changes to the new DDR5 memory standard have already been discussed around the launch of the Intel Alder Lake CPUs, even if sometimes not completely correct. So today we’re going to revisit the topic and delve deeper into the matter together with Kingston, who were kind enough to provide us with a written interview. It’s no [...]
