Intel’s Ice Lake CPUs are the first major update to the company’s Core architecture since 2016’s Skylake. All the processor lineups from Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake as well as the “new” Comet Lake chips leverage the 14nm Skylake core. The 10nm Ice Lake CPUs, therefore, is not only Intel’s first 10nm product stack but also the first post-Skylake core architecture. In this post, we compare Intel’s 10nm Ice Lake CPUs to AMD’s competing Ryzen 3000 processors as well as the 10th Gen Comet Lake counterparts.

At $159, MSI’s Mech variant of the Radeon RX 5500 XT is easily not only the cheapest Navi 14 GPU but also the best budget 1080p graphics card. While the 4GB VRAM might turn some people off, we’ve done extensive testing that proves the 4GB buffer won’t be an issue. It consistently beats NVIDIA’s GTX 1650 Super by a fat margin, all the while costing less.

Intel’s 10th Gen Comet Lake-S desktop processors are going to be based on the tried and tested methodology of “increase the core clocks as much as you can, and hope for the best”. The flagship, Core i9-10900K is the only chip that will feature a higher core count over the preceding Coffee Lake parts. However, considering the costs and thermal requirements, it’s mainly going to target gamers and enthusiasts with deep pockets.

The Acer Nitro is a sleek, slim 23.8-inch PC monitor made for those who game. Every part of the monitor is tuned to offer better gaming experience. The fast refresh rate of 144Hz means frame rate is extremely smooth and the latency is low. This will give you advantage in fast-paced games, like those shooting games. Speed is the key word here, with a 1ms excellent response rate. The monitor supports AMD Radeon FreeSync technology which lets the monitor work in tandem with the graphics card to make varied frame rate smooth, while maintaining good quality visuals. The monitor has 1920 x 1080 pixels resolution.

In the long term, India hopes to be a key player in Asia’s electronics supply chain. But the latest move alone will not make India a chip manufacturing hub. Semiconductors that companies like Qualcomm and MediaTek make — and which go into computers and top-end smartphones — need billions of dollars of investments. That may not happen in a hurry in India. Though internet of things sensors can be made locally, semiconductors for high- end equipment need a lot more investment
