AMD Navi release date, news and rumorsedit
After releasing the AMD Radeon VII earlier this year, Team Red finally dropped its AMD Navi graphics cards shortly after their reveal. And so far, things are promising. Based on our very positive reviews of the AMD Radeon RX 5700 and AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT, it’s looking like these GPUs were crafted to take the PC componentsworld – not to mention, the best gaming PCs – by storm.
AMD Radeon RX 5700 graphics cards will come from partners next monthedit
The new AMD Radeon RX 5700 series graphics cards are here and have plenty to offer at a modest price point. But, one thing the new graphics cards don’t offer is alternative cooling options. AMD’s Radeon Business Unit Vice President and General Manager Scott Herkelman posted on Reddit to announce add-in-board (AIB) partners will release new designs in mid-August.
Custom Radeon RX 5700-series Only by Mid-August: AMDedit
In our reviews of the Radeon RX 5700 XT and RX 5700, we observed that while AMD made leaps with performance/Watt, the cards felt let down by the archaic lateral-blower cooling solution that hit up to 43 dBA at load, and with temperatures of the RX 5700 XT GPU reaching up to 92°C – unacceptable for a GPU that only draws 220 W.

AMD Ryzen vs AMD FX Series CPUs: Why is Zen so Much Better than the Bulldozer Architecture?edit
AMD’s Ryzen 3000 CPUs are finally in the market, and reviews have started pouring in, most of them terming team red as the giant killer, making Intel’s entire 8th and 9th Gen lineup obsolete (at the current pricing at the very least). But, things weren’t so positive for AMD a few years back, in fact, it was unimaginable to think that the company would be competing with Intel’s top-end i7s and i9s.

Time to Ryzen shine, Intel: AMD has started shipping 7nm desktop CPUs like it’s no big dealedit
These are the first desktop processors to support PCIe 4.0 standard, which potentially doubles throughput to 16 gigatransfers per second when compared to PCIe 3.0 – something that’s increasingly important for things like GPUs, dedicated machine-learning accelerators, and non-volatile memory.

10nm Intel Ice Lake Core i5-1035G1 (Gen11 iGPU) Faster than AMD Radeon Vega 3 GPUedit
These days are possibly the worst days for Intel ever since the Core ix lineup was first launched back in the late 2000s. AMD’s Ryzen 3000 chips are eating the highest end i9s for breakfast while costing half as much and consuming less power. Team blue’s “best gaming CPU” claim also seems to have become redundant thanks to the massive IPC uplift of the Zen 2 CPUs. However, that doesn’t mean that they’ve given up.
