AMD debuts today its new SmartAccess Storage technology which marries the goodness of Microsoft's DirectStorage with its own Smart Access Memory technology, promising faster game load times, and more.

A few hours ago, AMD's Computex 2022 presentation details regarding its Zen 4 architecture and Ryzen 7000 leaked. Now, we have information on the accompanying AM5 socket and the 600-series chipsets.

AMD's Computex 2022 keynote presentation, where the firm is expected to introduce Zen 4 architecture, is less than a day away. As such more details about the upcoming Ryzen 7000 PUs have leaked.

A PCB diagram of an AMD X670 Asus AM5 motherboard has leaked. The leaked picture appears to show dual chipsets which seemingly confirms earlier rumors. ASMedia is expected to be the chipset supplier.

A recent report suggested that AMD was going to debut a brand-new class of chipset dubbed X670E which was going to be even better than X670. AMD partner ASRock has seemingly confirmed the report.

A bug that was introduced with one of the recent Windows 10 builds was leading to Microsoft Store app install failures on modern Intel and AMD CPUs. An OOB update has been released which fixes this.

A new report alleges that AMD is going to introduce a completely new class of chipset for its upcoming Socket AM5 motherboards which are going to house the next-gen Ryzen 7000 (Zen 4) processors.

AMD has teamed up with Qualcomm to bring some of the fastest Wi-Fi capabilities to its Ryzen PRO 6000 APUs. This will lead to faster Wi-Fi on Windows 11 Ryzen PCs using Microsoft's Wi-Fi Dual Station.

According to a new report, AMD's next-gen Phoenix mobile APUs will perform in the same ballpark as the RTX 3060 Max-Q mobile GPU. These APUs could one day completely replace lower-end GPUs.

AMD's next-gen Zen 4 architecture powering the Ryzen 7000 series CPUs could be landing in September 2022 according to a report. The new chips will usher in full DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 support.

AMD has unveiled today new Chromebook APUs in the form of the all-new Ryzen 5000 C-series processors. These new parts will pack up to eight cores and 16 threads and are twice faster than last gen.

Latest testing using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS based on Linux kernel 5.15 shows AMD Ryzen 4000 Renoir APUs get solid gains on the new OS when compared against older Ubuntu 20.04.4 that was built on 5.15.

AMD recently announced that it is really serious about DDR5 overclocking on its next-gen Ryzen 7000 Raphael CPUs. As such, a new report says that the company is bringing a new EXPO feature for that.

A new report says AMD is bringing a new "dual-chiplet" design approach for its next-gen flagship X670 chipset on Socket AM5. Additionally, the report also claims that AM5 won't have DDR4 support.

AMD's next-gen Phoenix APUs are rumored to carry up to 24 Compute Units (CUs) according to a new report. Paired with its high clocks, these new APUs are expected to be faster even than the GTX 1060.

UserBenchmark has started throwing shade at the all-new Ryzen 7 5800X3D processor criticizing AMD's move to add the new 3D V-cache technology in its CPU as nothing more than a useless gimmick.

The upcoming AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D does look like a very potent gaming chip as even with DDR5-6000 memory, an Intel Alder Lake-S Core i9-12900K is barely able to keep up in 1080p gaming scenarios.

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Vega 7 graphics is currently on sale on Amazon for a very attractive discounted price. In terms of performance, the Vega is much better than similarly priced Intel IGPs.

AMD's upcoming Ryzen 7 5800X3D, due to launch in a week's time, is easily able to beat Intel's latest 12th Gen Alder Lake-S flagship Core i9 parts in games that really utilize the new 3D V-cache.

An early gaming benchmark of the upcoming AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D shows that it is easily able to beat Intel's much more expensive Core i9-12900KS. The i9 costs $739 while the 5800X3D is priced at $449.

AMD has confirmed that its Windows 11 graphics drivers, that also come with a certain new "Auto Overclock" feature, have been messing up the firmware settings for users with Ryzen processors.

Noctua has announced a list of existing AM4 coolers that will be compatible with future Socket AM5 motherboards that are launching later this year. Overall, all but two AM4 coolers are compatible.

In a recent interview, AMD's Director of Technical Marketing, Robert Hallock, explained why Intel took the all-new big.LITTLE approach for designing its 12th Gen Alder Lake x86 processors.

AMD has launched all-new "Milan-X" EPYC 7003X lineup today which come with the new 3D V-Cache. The new cache implementation allows AMD to cram in 804MB of cache on the flagship 64 core part.

After Asus and Gigabyte initially gave no hint regarding B350 chipset support for Ryzen 5000 CPUs, the former has now apparently confirmed that the chipset will be supported alongside A320 and X370.

Cinebench numbers for the binned Core i9-12900KS show that it can easily outpace the top-end AMD Ryzen 9 5950X even in multi-threaded situation. And in single-threaded test, the gap is even bigger.

While AMD made it official yesterday that first-gen Socket AM4 300 series chipset boards will support the new Ryzen 5000 and 4000 CPUs too, there appears to be some major caveats, at least for now.

AMD has officially unveiled the new Ryzen 5000 series CPUs, alongside the anticipated Ryzen 7 5800X3D. Alongside specs, the company has also announced the release dates for all the SKUs.

As the company had said earlier, AMD has officially announced the support of all Ryzen 5000 series CPUs, including the newest ones, on first-gen 300 series chipset AM4 motherboards.

In the latest PassMark rankings update, AMD's recently launched 64 core Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX has become the fastest CPU available in the entire market, easily surpassing those of last gen.

Testing the new retpoline mitigation on AMD for Spectre v2 shows that the performance loss with the new patch is nowhere nearly as big as the performance impact incurred by Intel processors.
