AMD Delays 3rd Gen Threadripper, 16-Core Ryzen 9 3950X Until Novemberedit
When AMD launched its 7nm Ryzen CPUs in July, it promised that there was another high-end chip still to come — the Ryzen 9 3950X, a 16-core processor with a 3.5GHz base clock and a 4.7GHz boost. In the intervening months, however, it’s become clear that the company was quite supply-constrained. We’ve been watching the overall supply situation with Ryzen 7nm CPUs, and while it’s improving, it hasn’t yet been all that good. The 3900X,SEEAMAZON_ET_135 See Amazon ET commerce in particular, has been difficult to find.

Best Gaming PC Build Under Rs. 50,000 ($500) in 2019 for 60 FPS @ 1080p Ultraedit
For the CPU, I’ll be recommending the 9th Gen Intel Core i5-9400F. A lot of people won’t like the fact that I’m suggesting a blue chip for a budget setup and will complain that a Ryzen 5 2600 should be recommended instead. My reasons are twofold. Firstly, this is a sheer gaming-focused rig where Intel Coffee Lake CPUs are quite a bit superior to the 1st and 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen processors (both cost north of 10K), so it won’t make much sense to shell out another 4-7K on a Zen+ part.

Borderlands 3 PS4 Pro vs Xbox One X vs PC Graphics Comparison, Frame Rate Test, And Moreedit
This is noticeable, even at higher resolutions. To overcome this, Gearbox added in AMD’s FidelityFX Sharpening as an optional toggle. FidelityFX can be used on both AMD and Nvidia hardware. It’s interesting to note that fellow looter-shooter Rage 2 was one of the first games to implement FidelityFX. The contrast-adaptive sharpening solution claws back most of the image quality lost to Temporal AA. The end result is the best of both worlds: a sharp image and great aliasing coverage.

Buying your dream gaming laptop for the lowest price possibleedit
New gaming laptops seldom receive deep discounts during sales. On the other hand, models that have been around for a few months (or years) often get many thousands knocked off their original launch price. To do that, you have to ensure you don’t buy a model that’s too old. If you’re looking to play modern AAA titles on your new machine, ensure the CPU is no older than an Intel 8th Gen Core series line-up or a 2018 AMD Ryzen model and the Nvidia GPU belongs to the GeForce GTX 1600 series. The ray tracing-enabled RTX cards are equally preferred too.
