Re: AMD Zen

Looking at the price of the already existing Ryzen lappys, I'm thinking this new one will be a bit too much to spend on what would be a backup machine. I think I will wait and see if it causes the older ones to drop in price.

Well I'm really coming from the past so what I say doesn't matter much but I always went for Intel's I 7 line. Carl2

Re: AMD Zen

As time goes by I'm getting more and more impressed with AMD and their new strategy and technology, it's looking like they are seriously going to take the crown from Intel and possibly Nvidia too.
The New Ryzen 5000 series of CPU's is just around the corner and it is mighty.
AMD's new RX 6000 series of GPU's looks to be on-par with Nvidia's 3000 series for less money and less power consumption.
I will be posting some performance videos in this thread at some point.
Watch this space.

All I know is that I'm glad that I listened to Data and Freddy when they highly recommended I look into getting an SSD on my next computer.
Thanks again, guys. It has been highly worth the investment! Best and fastest Laptop I've ever owned!!

I got my first SSD in 2011, still have it in my PC as a storage drive for games and it's working perfectly, unless you get a bad one (which can happen with all PC components) they have a longer life than HDD too.

I can't remember when I got my first one. They also generate less heat, take up less space and are silent

The new Ryzen 5000 series of CPU's are here, I said I would post some benchmarks, hold on to your seats, AMD have eaten Intel for breakfast here in both single and multicore. Skip this video to 3:50 for the results.
