When AMD initially announced that their next-generation Ryzen processors would only support 500 series motherboards they faced significant backlash and were forced to include 400 series motherboard support. The reason AMD cited at the time was the limitations in some flash chips not containing enough space to store the information for all processors, several motherboard manufacturers encountered this issue with Ryzen 3000 bios updates where they needed to reduce graphical elements in their BIOS.

If the rumors are true, then the new AMD Radeon RX 6800 (not the RX 6800XT) is 50% better at mining for cryptocurrency than the current crypto champ, the Nvidia RTX 3090. When factoring in the associated costs of cryptocurrency mining, as explained by Videocards, the RTX 3090 can generate about $3.37/£2.63/AU$4.72 of cryptocurrency a day, or about $103/£80/AU$144 a month. The RX 6800, meanwhile, can potentially mine about $5.00/£3.90/AU$7.00 a day, or roughly $152/£118/AU$213 a month.

AMD has come out and stated that it doesn’t make any sense to be taking a leaf out of ARM’s guide through the use of one thing just like huge.LITTLE tech for Ryzen desktop CPUs, not less than not within the close to future – which is a not so refined manner of casting doubt on Intel’s processor plans. Primarily as a result of as you might bear in mind, Intel attends to undertake an enormous.LITTLE form of method – the place ‘huge’ (normal) processor cores is paired with low-power extra environment-friendly ‘little’ cores.

AMD introduced Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) and Auto-overclocking with its 3rd Gen Ryzen processors to allow users to get a small performance boost without manually tweaking any of the more confusing BIOS settings. Although Auto-Overclocking (AutoOC) did improve performance by a small amount, PBO wasn’t really effective.

NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 1060 is still the most popular graphics card among Steam gamers, even four years after its launch in Q2 2016. The GTX 1050 Ti is the second-most popular GPU, while the 1050 is the third. The highest-ranked Turing part (#4) is the GTX 1650 which is new as the most popular NVIDIA GPU from every generation is usually the x60/x70. The CPU market was relatively quiet in October, with gamers patiently for the Ryzen 5000 lineup from AMD. Considering how well these new parts perform in gaming workloads, we should see even greater gains on AMD’s sides in the coming months.

ASRock’s A320 motherboard has received support for the newly launched Ryzen 5000 CPUs as well as the Renoir APUs, courtesy of an unofficial BIOS posted to the Chiphell forums. Furthermore, both the lineups support an Infinity Clock and memory of up to 2,000MHz+ on the A320 board in a 1:1 ratio, maximization the memory bandwidth and reducing the latency. The poster tested the top-end Ryzen 9 5950X using the same BIOS on his ASRock A320 and everything worked properly. The same was reported for the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750 which ran at a memory speed of 4333MT/s.

Gamersnexus has made some interesting observations with respect to the Ryzen 5000 memory configuration. Generally, when talking about performance, we consider the memory speed and timings, plus whether you’re using single-channel or dual-channel memory. However, in this case, Steve tested the Ryzen 5 5600X using four memory DIMMs vs two and got some interesting results. The gaming performance saw an increase of 5-10% across various titles, with Shadow of the Tomb Raider seeing the highest benefit at 8.7%.

Many rumors have been floating around lately claiming that AMD’s Big Navi graphics cards will be as much as 1.5x faster than the NVIDIA Ampere flagship, the RTX 3090 in crypto-mining. Before you start panicking, we have some good news for you. No, the Radeon RX 6800XT and the 6900XT won’t be 1.5x faster than the RTX 3090, or maybe even the RTX 3080 in terms of the mining hash-rate. As a certain Twitter user points it out, the mining performance is largely based on the GPU’s raw memory bandwidth.

The much anticipated Ryzen 5000 series from AMD is launched. And we now have an exclusive look at the next-generation processor from Advanced Micro Devices. According to sources, the Ryzen 5000 series has exceeded 6 GHz on Liquid Nitrogen (LN2). The Ryzen 9 5950X, on the other hand, offers a peak single-core boost clock of 4.9 GHz. But sources claim that the 16 core processor to have a boost clock of 6.362 GHz.
