Starting at the bottom of the stack, the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X overall performs well compared to the Intel Core i5 14600K, with about a 10% performance lead. However, the 14600K is faster in some workloads, namely when working with LongGOP codecs like H.264 and HEVC where the...
But what about when you add wattage to the equation? AMD emphasizes energy optimization, and the max power draw of Intel’s latest generation of chips regularly exceeds AMD’s equivalents across the board. For example, Intel’s Core i7-13700K tops out at 253W, while the AMD Ryzen 7 7700...
Photoshop is a fairly lightly threaded application, which means that you don’t typically get a big performance increase as you get into higher and higher core counts. For the AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs we tested, we saw results ranging just from 1416 to 1732, or a difference of 22%. Intel ...
This in turn is going to have two immediate short-term benefits for AMD. The first of course is more cash; selling their share in ATIC is going to net the company a fair bit of cash and cash equivalents. The second of which is that AMD had to absorb some of GF’s losses; they wo...
The CPU outpaced its last-gen equivalents by miles, and it kept up with Intel's best processors despite having far fewer cores. Read more Computing Why it’s hard recommending AMD Ryzen 7000 after Intel’s Raptor Lake launch AMD's Ryzen 9 7950X is the best processor I've tested -- ...
Ryzen™ 7000 Series Processor with AMD 3D V-Cache™ Technology Pricing and Availability Read more Computing Intel’s Core i9-13900KS hits 6GHz out of the box, but there’s a catch Intel has just launched the Core i9-13900KS, a CPU to end all CPUs -- at least in this generation...
For the most part, then, the chart looks largely as you’d expect it would, with the newer, greater core-count CPUs outperforming their older equivalents. However, the Xeon Broadwell EP results tell a whole different story, and it’s one that’s worth delving into deeper. ...
AMD vs Intel: price (Image credit: Future) Both AMD and Intel have entry-level, mid-range, and high-end configurations from within their respective processor generations. For gamers and creatives, prices start from $299 / £265 / AU$460 at MSRP for the likes of theAMD Ryzen 5 7600X...
You’ll be able to transplant DDR4 memory from older Intel or AMD systems and LGA1700 motherboards are generally cheaper than theirAMD Socket AM5equivalents, but it has at least a couple of generations to come and a longer life span. Still, if you need an upgrade now and don’t intend...
lower‑priced AMD AM4‑based board along with the more freely available and cheaper DDR4 RAM. AMD’s move to DDR5 has levelled the cost and availability playing fields — the first range of AM5 boards cost broadly the same as their Intel equivalents. AMD launched their most recent chips...
