After spending many years lagging behind Intel’s innovative technologies, AMD’s latest CPU platform promises to bring back the glory days of AMD’s CPU supremacy. At the core of AMD’s latest processors is a technology that’s been dubbed “Infinity Fabric.” This name references a smart engineering tactic that allows a single CPU core to be specially …
As PC gamers, we spend a lot of time ensuring that our hardware gives us the best gaming experience possible. When you upgrade your graphics card or CPU, it’s easy to quantify the improvement in performance. Higher frame rates, lower lag, and better load times are all things we look for. But despite the high …
Last year, having an 8-core CPU was something to brag about. This level of performance was only valuable if you had a computer made from the highest performance hardware, and it was financially out of reach for most consumers. Today, ThreadRipper has changed all of that. AMDs ThreadRipper CPUs are designed gamers who crave cores, …
When it comes to mice, most consumers are pretty familiar with the common options. Chances are, anyone reading this is using either a standard mouse or a track pad. If you wanted to get technical, you could narrow it down. There are laser mice, optical mice, and there might even be a few ball mice …
Liquid cooling has always been considered the gold-standard of CPU cooling. The performance goes well beyond what’s possible with air, and superior technologies such as phase-change are limiting both in price and accessibility. That being said, liquid cooling isn’t always beginner-safe either. With a custom water loop, one bad connection could drench your brand new …
