Abstract: 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 Z370. This is the 8th generation of Intel’s Core processors going back to the original launch back in 2006...

Finally we're here, we've done what you've asked - nay shouted at - us to do and returned to the AMD Ryzen CPUs with the latest BIOS and retail CPU's, put them through their paces and discovered if an up-to-date BIOS and programs can transform the Zen per...
Abstract: At the beginning of 2017, there wasn't much reason for CPU to cover sub $200 processors. In the case of AMD, these processors were so old that they didn't warrant much coverage, and outside of a couple Core i5 models, Intel's affordable options were simpl...
We already tested the Ryzen 7 1700X, the Ryzen 7 1700, and the Ryzen 5 1600X. In all of those tests, we concluded that they are CPUs with high performance in applications that use paralelism (which means they can use all the threads of the CPU,) but they...

Remarkable multithreaded performance, More core and threads than the competition, 1600X on par with a stock i5 7600K in gaming, The full-featured AM4 platform, Excellent value for money
Questions remain over gaming performance, Some early adopter quirks linger, Overclocking not as strong as Kaby Lake
Excellent Price, Great Performance, Quality Design, AMD is Really Back
None
The Ryzen 5 1600X seems like the Best All Around CPU a user can buy right now for their system. That said, AMD has done a marvelous job of making a Ryzen chip that can cater to nearly every type of situation...

Unlocked ratio multiplier, Multithreaded performance
The Ryzen 5 1500X offers a competitive price point and a good mix of characteristics, particularly if you're willing to invest some time in tuning. Gaming remains a soft spot in the Ryzen series, but a bit of tuning provides a good bang-for-the-buck o...

Comes With SMT Which Core i5 CPUs Lack, Outstanding Performance, Fully Unlocked, Can Easily Be OC'd to 4Ghz+, Perfect For Multi-Tasking, Future-Proof Platform, Great Price/Performance Value, Runs Very Cool
Memory Compatibility Limited
The bottom line is that the Ryzen 5 1600X and 1500X destroyed Intel's Core i5-7600K and i5-7500 processors in pretty much all of the testing that I performed. The Ryzen 5 series gives you the option of getting a 6C/12T processor while the Core i5 lineup i...

The new AMD RYZEN CPU series has proven to be a huge breakthrough for AMD and is the first time in a long while that they have been able to put up a good hard fight with what Intel has to offer. In our tests, the RYZEN 1500X really proved just how compete...
The AMD Ryzen 5 1500X at $189.00 shipped is a nice quad-core that we were able to easily overclock up to 4.2GHz with no issues at all. The performance of the AMD Ryzen 5 1500X overclocked up to 4.2GHz was pretty damn good, but it wasn't able to catch up t...
