Abstract: AMD renewed competition in the CPU space back in 2017, when its Zen-based Ryzen processors stormed the scene a couple months earlier than originally anticipated. These processors combined good enough single-threaded performance with many core architecture...
The Ryzen 9 3900X remains the fastest processor in our bench even with SMT disabled, beating the Core i9-9900K across multi-threaded tests. It also beats an untouched Ryzen 7 3700X. It's settled, then, that 12 physical cores beat 8-core/16-thread. Howeve...

Abstract: A battle that needs no further introduction, we're pitting the new Ryzen 9 3900X head to head against the Core i9-9900K in 36 games. There's loads of results to go over and this article is solely focused on PC gaming performance. For more context on the c...
Abstract: Most of our readers know that the vast majority of PC games are designed for your mainstream 4-8 core processors. As the processor manufacturers have been rapidly increasing core counts that hasn't directly translated into better performance. When AMD fir...
Abstract: I noticed a number of sites and channels are reporting that the AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-core, 24-thread processor can be run at full clock speeds with just 1.00V on the CPU VCore. That sounds pretty damn impressive and I just had to give it a try here to see...
Abstract: Last week AMD Ryzen 3000 series desktop processors based on the Zen 2 architecture finally came to market. AMD launched six new desktop processors of which five are available today. Of the processors that are out today they range in price between $199 to...
