"Both figures exceed Nvidia’s 250W rating on GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, which isn’t even in Vega’s crosshairs." not sure if that will remain to be true ... from a compute power perspective the water cooled version competes with the titan xp quite nicely. the question will more likely be if amds' (it...

up to now i have only seen one omen (dell) system with ryzen cpu's after over 6 months of the cpu being out and massive consumer interest it is dead quiet on the big manufactureres front ... now threadripper is out and for workstation we also only see relatively small companies offering rigs...

well ... at least for 1000 bucks you now not only get a fairly powerful cpu but also a heater for the winter / grill in the summer ... and that just with the standard 10 core model. imagine the potential of the obviously unplanned and hastily shoehorned in 12-18core models once they come out in...

fascinating how much innovation intel can show, when they get their ass handed to them by amd ... still they will have to do a lot better than what they currently show. all announcements made lately are out at least half a year to a year, while amd is launching their products inside the next...

never used beam ... but why change a perfectly good name into something that sounds like a kitchen appliance? microsoft special needs department ... err microsoft marketing is at it again it seems.

"Ryzen excels at workstation applications, but its curious gaming performance trends have dominated the conversation." yeah ... curious gaming performance indeed ... unnoticeable in fact in 100% of real life scenarios, because the difference between 150 and 125 fps is just irrelevant. also...

this article would be more meaningful if it had cpu-usage statistics along with the fps. that would actually give us some indicator on actual performance and headroom. generally though: none of the games tested here really fall below 50 fps. rise of the tomb raider is lagging behind...

since i tend to buy a new cpu/board every 4-5 years nowadays (am currently on haswell i7 as intel has done little more then up the clock a notch and slap a new core-name on it since ... forever), i am more interested in long term outlook then current AAA games (aka tomorrows old news). in that...

here is one vidoe with actual side by side comparison of fps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsDjx-tW_WQ you can find tons like it on youtube, some, like this one have the necessary details to identify what is going on. - the video shows a disparity of fps that is about 10-15%, i think i saw...

yes i do really believe that, and it is based in my experience over many years with this site. when it comes to intel or nvidia tomshardware in general seems to set up the cheerleaders, calls the quire to sing a hymn and prais the gods at dawn in every article. this is clearly visible in...

what is it with TomsHardwares obsessive compulsive nitpicking when it comes to amd news? the rest of the press pretty much universally gives one highnote after another in terms of rumors, leaks and stats. tomshardware does not manage to post a single article without phrasing it like there is...
