When it comes to the task we care most about, gaming, a CPU has to be fairly generalist. We use a processor for gaming, sure, but video editing, 3D modelling, encoding, running Discord—these are ...

AMD has said that it will have both Zen 4 and Zen 5 architectures on the market in 2024, with Zen 4 + Zen 4 with V-Cache + Zen 4c CPUs made on TSMC 5nm and 4nm process nodes this year, and into 2023.

In this article, we'll take a look at how L3 cache capacity affects gaming performance. More specifically, we'll be examining AMD's Zen 3-based Ryzen processors in a "for science" type of feature ...

W ithout the slightest fanfare, AMD has added a new "X3D" model with 3D V-Cache to its CPU lineup. Give it up, ladies and germs, for the new Ryzen 5 5500X3D (thanks to X user MEGAsizeGPU for ...

AMD is continuing to push heterogeneous computing, and is readying a new "Steamroller" CPU design that incorporates several efficiency improvements versus its existing Bulldozer and PIledriver ...

TL;DR: AMD is reportedly developing a Zen 5-based CPU with X3D cache for Sony's PlayStation 6, featuring a UDNA GPU architecture. The new APU will enhance CPU and GPU performance through 3D stacking.

The AMD Zen CPU architecture is now called Ryzen (pronounced rye-zen, not rizen). Perhaps more importantly, though, as we creep towards Ryzen's promised Q1 2017 release date, AMD has finally ...

For example, a Ryzen 5 2600H (APU) is based on first-gen Zen (14nm), but a Ryzen 5 2600 is a second-gen Zen+ (12nm) CPU. Also note that there are no second generation desktop APUs. The biggest ...

With this in mind, the Zen 3 architecture is said to achieve up to a 19% boost of performance over Zen 2-based chips. Everything we saw was interesting to say the least, but it looks like AMD isn ...

In contrast, a Zen 4 CCX has 32MB of L2 cache, which is larger than the Zen 4c CCX. AMD is expected to introduce two Bergamo processors this month: the 128-core EPYC 9754 and a slightly modified ...
