Intel’s performance offering from the 12th Gen processors is impressive. The gaming crown looks to be back Intel’s hand, and AMD also needs to respond to their overall performance crown being infringed upon. How will AMD respond? And what are the timescales? There’s also the elephant in the room of Apple, with the M1 silicon continuing to make impressive performance strides...

Luke and Leo share their reaction to the launch of Intel 12th Gen

We were invited to an Intel event in London and we walked away with a Core i9-12900K, i7-12700K and a i5-12600K, with benchmarking already underway ahead of the review next week. It's time to dive a bit deeper into the CPUs and Z690 chipset though, so buckle in...

We are finally back in person for another Leo and Luke discussion about some exciting tech topics. We start with a talk on Intel's upcoming 12th Gen Alder Lake CPUs and the upcoming introduction of DDR5 memory. There's plenty to be excited about, so let's speculate rampantly...

Leo recently sat through an Intel briefing relating to benchmarking laptops and focusing on performance both with and without the power adapter connected. Throughout, Intel was keen to highlight the AMD drops performance by a higher percentage in their own testing. Luke and Leo discuss this briefing and wonder why Intel is so keen to publicise AMD's weaknesses rather than focusing on its own strengths.

I had already installed an Aqua Computer Kryos NEXT block on my Intel Xeon along with a Watercool Heatkiller top on my D5 pump and had one of their Tube 100 reservoirs on order. The EKWB X3 reservoir you can see in that video worked perfectly well (although the location …

Amid all the furore over who did what first between Space X and Blue Origin and repeated attempts by the former to land a rocket booster on its drone-barge, Space X CEO Elon Musk is still thinking about Mars. He's been doing that for a while in-fact and has some …

Although much of the history of space exploration has been driven by the minds and money of national organisations like NASA and the Soviet Space Program, commercial entities have been aiding their efforts for a long time. And that looks set to continue with Space X bidding on a contract …

If you've been a regular KitGuru reader for the past few months, then chances are you'll have spotted at least one of Leo's videos discussing the ongoing challenge from OCZ – to kill 5 ARC 100 SSD's by continually writing data to them, until they cave in. While the warranty …

Will AMD's Leo platform be hopelessly outgunned by the awesome power of Intel's latest, top-end, 6-core, i7 Extreme Edition… or are they aimed at totally different markets?  KitGuru gets in the ring to investigate who LEO wants to tame. In 2007, Pat Gelsinger gave an open interview about Intel's future …
