DDR5 Gear 2 performs better than Gear 4 memory settings in both latency and performance departments on Intel Z890 motherboards. High memory frequency with DDR5 CUDIMM on Intel and AMD platforms doesn't favor performance or latency In recent weeks, we have seen a plethora of CUDIMMs being launched. Corsair, G.Skill, Colorful, and many more manufacturers introduced their own CUDIMM DDR5 memories for Intel's Z890 and AMD X870/X870E platforms that seek to enhance the overall performance of the system. Some overclockers already broke world records by breaking the 10000 MT/s and 12000 MT/s marks, but as we said previously, we are […]
AMD's high-performance CPU journey continues on the desktop platform with the arrival of the Zen 5 core architecture. The new architecture has several fundamental changes that allow huge performance uplifts in single-core and multi-core applications. These can be attributed to the 16 percent IPC improvement that the new architecture has on offer. Replacing the AMD Ryzen 7000 "Zen 4" CPUs, the Ryzen 9000 "Zen 5" CPUs do not change the core configurations but enhance them in certain ways. The architectural upgrades allow Zen 5 chips to run cooler, consume lower power, and support the latest features on existing and upcoming […]
