During the Computex Keynote, AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su made waves by unveiling the Ryzen 9000 series of AM5 CPUs. The upcoming series introduces the new Zen 5 core architecture and is set to hit the market next month. While the core count and clock rates remain unchanged in the …

Recently, new screenshots have revealed the existence of an upgraded version of the Ryzen 9 7950X3D processor. These CPUs are already well known for their 3D V-cache, which can bring a notable boost to gaming performance.  As seen in the screenshot shared by HXL, Windows Task Manager and CPU-Z both …

The next Core i9-14900K CPU, which will be part of Intel's Raptor Lake Refresh portfolio, will have the same core count as the Core i9-13900K, with 24 cores made up of 8 P-cores and 16 E-cores. However, there is a noticeable increase in clock speed, as seen in recently leaked …

While Meta will continue to support the Quest 2 as its primary gaming VR headset for the foreseeable future, the company is also working on a new pro-level headset codenamed Project Cambria. In a recent podcast, Meta CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, confirmed that this headset would launch in October, and now, …

Recently, we've seen the first pre-production sample benchmarks for the Intel Core i9-13900K. Now, it seems the Core i5-13600K is also doing the rounds, but the upcoming mid-range processor delivered mixed results.  Bilibili user ECSM (via VideoCardz) was able to obtain an Intel Core i5-13600K pre-production sample (ES3) but didn't …

The same reviewer that brought us the performance figures of the Intel Core i9-13900K pre-production sample has now shared another analysis showing its gaming performance. While the upcoming 13th Gen processor doesn't make huge gains in average frame rates, it does make a noticeable difference to the minimum frame rate …

Pre-production samples of the upcoming Intel Core i9-13900K have begun doing the rounds. Over in China, one reviewer with a sample ran multiple tests, comparing the early edition chip to the Core i9-12900KF. Overall, Raptor Lake seems to bring a big bump in multi-core performance compared to Alder Lake. The …

A leaker previously known for revealing specs for AMD's next-gen EPYC processors has now shared photos of what appear to be legitimate engineering samples, although they didn't survive very long and apparently burned out as soon as the user tried to boot a machine with them.  Prominent leaker Yuuki_Ans was …

Intel will be launching its 13th Gen Core processors later this year and engineering samples are starting to do the rounds. We've already seen some early Core i9 13900K performance results from ES1, which had limited performance. Recently, ES3 has appeared, bringing boost clock speeds up to 5.5GHz.  Chiphell user …

AMD recently shared more details about the Ryzen 7000 series and AM5 platform, both of which are set to launch in Q3 this year. We've only seen a render of what the new IHS design looks like for the new chips, which is markedly different from previous AMD processors, but …

Intel has been quiet regarding its next generation of Xeon Scalable processors, but samples are beginning to float around. This week, one leaker got their hands on one of the upcoming processors and put it to the test in a range of benchmarks.  Chinese leaker, @yuuki_ans, ran the engineering sample …

With AMD Zen 4 processors planned to come out later this year, it's reasonable to expect the chipmaker has already begun making engineering samples. Two of those samples have now been spotted in the BOINC database, giving the first benchmark results of the upcoming processors. The entries were spotted by …

While AMD hasn't announced its upcoming Ryzen 5000G APUs yet, early engineering samples are appearing in online auctions. Over on eBay, someone is attempting to sell an engineering sample of the Ryzen 3 5300G APU, the listing even links to a video with performance benchmarks, giving us an idea of …

It looks like the Intel Core i9-11900 is starting to leak. This week, CPU-Z benchmark scores for the upcoming processor leaked. The chip benchmarked was an engineering sample, but it still can give us an idea of the expected performance from this Rocket Lake-S CPU. The screenshots with the CPU-Z …

Two entries of the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X have been spotted on the Geekbench database. One of these entries shows the AMD processor was running on in an iMac Pro and it was clocked at 6.0GHz, which is quite the impressive figure.  The two entries spotted on Geekbench (1, 2) …

Images showing an alleged engineering sample of an RDNA2 graphics card have been posted online. It's not known which RDNA2 graphics card this is, but it's quite possibly an engineering sample of one of the upcoming AMD Radeon Navi 2x graphics cards. Spotted by @Avery78 (via VideoCardz) on Bilibili and Chiphell forums, …

In May, we shared with you an A0 stepping engineering sample of a 16C/32T Ryzen 4000 processor with a 4.6GHz turbo boost frequency. A month later, we saw proof that the Ryzen 4000 series desktop processors had reached the B0 stepping, but we didn't know how much they had improved …

An engineering sample of an Intel Rocket Lake-S processor has been spotted in the 3DMark database, featuring 8 cores,16 threads, a base clock of 3.2GHz and a boost clock of 4.3GHz...

This whole industry is based on innovation. Like the man said, it’s not the most intelligent creature that wins – it’s the more adaptable. Having been inundated with images from the show, some of the most interesting came from Xigmatek. Let’s see what the company’s design and marketing guru, Tony …
