Abstract: It's the age-old question that has spurred endless debate: AMD or Intel? Today, that rivalry has reached new heights with AMD's Ryzen 2000 Series, often referred to by users (but not AMD) as "Ryzen 2," competing against Intel's 8th Gen "Coffee Lake" for d...

I can see the Ryzen 5 2600 and the 2600X fast becoming the most popular chips of the second generation Ryzen launch. They're fast, they're affordable, and they're easy to keep cool and overclock. I mean, if you're just doing a massive amount of rendering...
The AMD Ryzen 7 2700X is currently the best option for a consumer level processor. The only true competition it has is the Intel Core i7-8700k which is relatively even on single-core and gaming performance, but falls far behind on multi-thread application...

2nd Gen Ryzen makes some useful but marginal improvements over what we must now call 1st Gen Ryzen. If you liked Ryzen 7 1800X you will be impressed by Ryzen 7 2700X and the combination of reduced latency, increased clock speed as well as the sophisticati...
