New world records were set with the Ryzen 9 9950X 16-Core and Ryzen 9 9900X 12-Core chips, and a little help from our friend LN2, which was used to supercool these chips while voltages were cranked.
AMD's recipe for its X3D CPUs that offer a dollop of 3D V-Cache has always been straightforward. You take an existing CPU, drop some L3 cache on top of a die, then lower its clocks and TDP to ...
Would you trade the ability to easily overclock a CPU for a stash of additional cache and the performance benefits that come with it? It's a question enthusiasts may answer when AMD ships its upcoming ...
It's worth noting outright that the official product pages for the upcoming AMD Ryzen 7000X3D with 3D V-Cache have removed the note about overclocking. But that didn't stop several people from ...
In brief: We already know that AMD's new Ryzen 7 8700G APU responds favorably to fast DDR5. Now, we have a better idea of what's possible when stretching the iGPU's legs as well as what's possible ...
Today the embargo has lifted on AMD's new Ryzen 3800XT and 3900XT processors. Almost identical to their non-XT counterparts, Luke dives deep into the behaviour of these two CPUs, looking at boost ...
Did you catch our 2.5 Geeks webcast yesterday? If not, you definitely should—we sat down for a chat with AMD Director of Technical Marketing, Robert Hallock, primarily to take a deep dive into the ...
According to AMD, the upcoming generation of processors, dubbed Ryzen 7000 “Raphael,” is going to allow unprecedented levels of overclocking. Even though Zen 4 chips will already hit very high boost ...
1. You can often increase clocks without increasing power draw. Current is constant, so if you aren't increasing voltage to sustain your overclock, you aren't drawing any more power. Click to expand..
