Abstract: The sub-$250 CPU price point is the sweet spot where most system builders look at for their next CPU choice. In this area, creators, gamers and casual system builders intersect and overlap with their computing needs. Intel's 4-core/4-threaded i5 processor...
Well, the Ryzen 7 launch has a surprising amount of excitement and drama mixed together with the impressive numbers but with memory issues and game performance causing very polarized opinions on social media and on websites like Reddit. AMD fans even...

Abstract: Following our in-depth Ryzen VR benchmark (R7 1700 vs. i7-7700K with the Rift + Vive), we immediately began compiling results for the concurrent R5 test efforts by GN Sr. Editor Patrick Lathan. Working together, we were able to knock-out the VR benchmarks...

Even if we are dealing with a 65W TDP SKU (as the Ryzen 7 1700), this particular 4-core model does feature XFR so the clocks can jump as high as 3.9GHz when the conditions are met. As the more expensive models, we have 16MB of L3 cache, 512K L2 cache per...

We have already shown in previous reviews that the Zen microarchitecture from AMD is around the equivalent of Intel's Broadwell microarchitecture, but at this lower price point we have AMD's Zen against Intel's Kaby Lake, which is two generations newer th...

—for now Let's sum up the performance of our group of test CPUs using one of our famous value scatter plots. The best values in gaming smoothness from this group of chips will tend toward the upper left of the plot, where prices are lowest and performance...
The AMD Ryzen 5 processor launch is very similar feel to the Ryzen 7 launch as the multi-threaded performance of the AMD Ryzen 5 1600X and 1500X were most impressive. Single threaded workloads or very lightly threaded workloads still run better on Intel h...
Well, the performance is pleasantly surprising. The 1500X, in most cases, performed on par with the i7-7700K. Even though you can overclock the i7 further, the MSRP of the Ryzen 5 1500X is only $189. That's a monstrous difference in price/performance. E...
