Abstract: AMD's new Ryzen Threadripper processors are so good that we can almost forgive it its ridiculous name. That puny quad-core CPU you've got in your current rig? Threadripper will, well, rip through it like a sledgehammer through a paper wall.These may quite...
AMD is back in the gameIt's safe to say that AMD has left the troubled days of Bulldozer behind it. Ryzen Threadripper is an admirable re-entry into the HEDT market, and it's looking like a very compelling option compared to Intel's Core X processors.One...
