The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X and Threadripper 1920X are very impressive processors that did extremely well in content creation benchmarks that take advantage of having a 16-core, 32-thread processor in the system. The good news is a good number of app...
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...
Well, the Ryzen 7 launch has a surprising amount of excitement and drama mixed together with the impressive numbers but with memory issues and game performance causing very polarized opinions on social media and on websites like Reddit. AMD fans even...
Man, there is just so much to take in with this launch. I've gone through the testing and even though I have to follow up (hopefully) later on today when our 1700 comes in with its performance. I can say that testing Ryzen as a whole has been a roller...
The Intel Core i7-6900K is a very capable consumer desktop processor since it has 8-cores and is perfectly suited for power users and researchers that are crunching highly threaded workloads all day long. If you are looking for the fastest processor aroun...
Twice the cores of mainstream parts, Overclocks very well, Not much better than the two
Not much better than the twoyearsold i75960X, Very expensive and not necessary for gaming PCs
Eight cores is more than any game currently utilizes, but for CPU intensive tasks, Intel's i7-6900K easily beats their 6-core offerings. Just don't try gunning for the 10-core king of the mountain...
Nearly as powerful as the 10-core Extreme Edition, at a much lower price, Will work with most existing X99 Socket 2011 v3 motherboards (after a BIOS update)
Still quite expensive, Comparatively low clock speed means much cheaper chips will outrun it on some mainstream tasks
For content creators and enthusiasts who don't need the absolute best performance, Intel's eight-core Broadwell-E chip makes more sense than the $600-pricier Extreme Edition alternative. But those looking for the best bang for their silicon buck should s...

Abstract: What would you do with more CPU cores? This is a question I see posted from an Intel employee on a yearly basis, and it actually is a difficult question to answer depending on your computing background. A gamer might not need more than four or six, and a...
