We were curious to see how well a cheap B350 motherboard could run the latest and greatest 12-core, 24-thread Ryzen 9 3900X and were pleasantly surprised that there was no smoke, or sparks flying — it just works. Actually, I'm impressed with how well thi...

Abstract: For those wondering if upgrading your RAM to higher frequency DIMMs is worthwhile when moving to AMD X570 and a new Zen 2 processor like the Ryzen 9 3900X, here are some reference benchmarks at different frequencies while maintaining the same timings.In c...
Abstract: The buildup to AMD's launch party for its Ryzen 3000 CPUs, aka third gen Ryzen, aka Zen 2, has been huge. And if that's not enough, AMD is also launching the Radeon RX 5700 family of GPUs today. But Zen 2 is the more interesting I think, and the Ryzen 300...

Our first impressions with 3rd generation Ryzen's memory overclocking capabilities are very optimistic. The processor is capable of memory frequencies well beyond the DDR4-3600 most 2nd generation Ryzen chips cap out at as stability of the Infinity Fabri...

None that we found
So the Ryzen 3000 series is here! Even if you aren't an AMD fan this launch just seems to have something special about it. AMD has increased core counts, speeds, and has added new things that will actually bring you more performance. It seems that if you...

Zen 2 is finally here, and these new Ryzen processors fulfill much of the promise of the next generation of AMD CPUs on 7nm. So far we have tested the Ryzen 7 3700X and Ryzen 9 3900X, and both make a compelling case if you're looking to upgrade or build u...

So as compelling as the performance is for the AMD 3700X/3900X, if you are a Linux user wanting to run a bleeding-edge distribution you may want to hold off on purchasing this new hardware until hearing more on Phoronix. But if you want to use the likes o...
At the outset, we offer our profound gratitude to AMD for offering backwards compatibility for its 3rd generation Ryzen processors on motherboards that were designed way back in 2016. Motherboard designers back then would not have anticipated CPU core co...
