Its hard to believe considering we just finished up an Intel launch, but it is already time to check out Intel's next launch. Kaby Lake was launched at the beginning of this year and the Mainstream lineup of CPUs is getting refreshed with Coffee Lake and...
So I think most people will admit that AMD has had a lot of wins this year with all of the Ryzen launches. As I found out in our 1700v7700K coverage the 7700K was still a great performing CPU, especially when looking at gaming performance. But with ju...

AMD's Ryzen launch was impressive in a number of ways, but behind the scenes it was unprecedented for us to get so many products in such a short span of time. We did standalone reviews of the Ryzen 7 1800X and Ryzen 5 1600X in successive issues and report...

Despite all these changes, AMD has managed to preserve a very important aspect of its products – relatively low price. The CPU we shall have a closer look at in the present review was released on the market in March 2017 and it's called AMD Ryzen 7 1700X...
The new AMD Ryzen architecture brought the California company back in the game when it comes to high-end processors. A more pleasant news is that the most powerful chips from the Ryzen lineup (Ryzen 7 1700, 1700X and 1800X) are much cheaper than their Int...

"It can't just be that we're the cheaper solution," said AMD in 2015, back when Ryzen was little more than a handful of hopeful slides in a press deck. But as AMD and the wider tech press knew, competing with Intel on performance as well as price was alwa...

In this article, we focused entirely on gaming using the new AMD Balanced power plan. Of the 14 games we tested, many of the tests the AMD Ryzen 1700X was able to hold it's own against the Intel Core i7-7700K. There were times where the AMD Ryzen fell beh...

We tested the Ryzen 7 1700X, a new CPU from AMD, based on the Zen (Summit Ridge) architecture. It has eight cores, 16 threads, 3.4 GHz base clock, 3.8 GHz turbo clock, TDP of 95 W, and uses the new AM4 socket. Check it out!After several years, AMD finally...
We are glad to see how good is to have again competition on the high-end desktop CPUs market. It is clear on all tests that the Ryzen 7 1700X is far superior to the FX-8350, which is one of the most high-end processors from AMD until this launch.Comparing...

AMD isn't wasting any time debuting its new Ryzen CPUs. Just two weeks after rolling out a trio of top-end Ryzen 7 chips, the company announced that its midrange Ryzen 5 offerings will be hitting store shelves on April 11, 2017. And perhaps there's good...

The Ryzen 7 1700X octa-core processor from AMD was designed to fill-in the gap between the 1800X flagship and the 65W-rated Ryzen 7 1700, at an affordable price point of just $399. This SKU borrows all the features from the more expensive variant, includi...

We've praised the R7 1700 ($330) for its mixed workload performance and overclocking capabilities at $330, and we've criticized the 1800X for its insignificant performance improvements (over the 1700) at $500. That leaves the R7 1700X ($400), positioned...
Compared to the 1800X ($500), the 1700X predictably had mostly identical performance when overclocked, but the 1700X ($400) didn't offer any additional overclocking headroom over the 1700. And, for that matter, the 1800X doesn't offer any more headroom th...

Raven Ridge APUs are interesting as products. In a world where MSRP acted as an infallible decree handed down by galactic overlords, the GT 1030 would cost $70, the RX 560 would cost $100, and the G4560 would always have been $60. In this world, however...
The R3 2200G offers highly competitive performance at its price and, ultimately, really has no immediate competition. At $100, the CPU offers 78-85% of the performance of the R5 2400G at 58% of the price. Not bad at all. We can strongly recommend the R3 2...
