Intel has shipped four performance (P) cores in the last ten years, with the latest hitting notebook PCs a few quarters ago. Skylake landed in 2015, followed by several refreshes and a premature Cannon Lake launch that resulted in even more rebrands. Ice Lake (Sunny Cove) was launched in H2 2019 (on a limited scale), …| Hardware Times
The fifth iteration of AMD’s Zen core architecture is set to launch later this month. Zen 5 marks nearly seven years of Ryzen processors, starting with the release of Zen in 2017. Since then, we’ve gotten Zen+, Zen 2, Zen 3, and Zen 4 at the heart of the Ryzen 2000, 3000, 5000, and 7000 …| Hardware Times
Mafia: The Old Country is the latest Unreal Engine 5 title to plague our PCs. The game has rather hefty system requirements, but what the developers aren’t telling you is that you’ll need frame generation for 60 FPS even if your PC meets the “4K Epic” requirements: PC Specs 1080p Medium 1440p High 4K Epic …| Hardware Times
The 16-pin 12VHPWR power connector has been out for nearly three years now. Introduced with the GeForce RTX 4090 and its siblings in H2 2022, the connector was integrated into the PCIe 5/ATX 3 standard. Since its launch, the 12VHPWR connector has been responsible for damaging the power connector on numerous RTX 4090 and 5090 …| Hardware Times

AMD’s CPU market share has grown rapidly in the last few years, with some segments increasing from single-digit percentages to a third of the overall share. Team Red now challenges archrival Intel across all major market segments on even footing. The latest Core Ultra 200S processors fall behind in gaming workloads dominated by the Ryzen …| Hardware Times
Wuchang: Fallen Feathers’ official specifications are misleading. The recommended specs aim for 1080p 60 FPS using “high quality” settings and upscaling. However, they only consider the averages. The frame times and lows are much worse, barely playable on recommended-level hardware: Specs Minimum Recommended Processor Core i5-8400 | Ryzen 5 1600 Core i7-9700 | Ryzen 5 …| Hardware Times
The next-gen consoles may leverage a hybrid-core architecture, featuring AMD’s Zen 6 and Zen 6c cores. The latest leak from Moore’s Law is Dead reveals a massive multi-die APU featuring a Zen 6 CPU and (likely) a UDNA GPU. There’s no proof that this SoC will power the Sony PS6 or the next-gen Xbox, but …| Hardware Times
Intel’s switch to a hybrid core architecture aimed to improve multi-threaded performance and optimize the power efficiency of mobility designs. While the former has been somewhat successful, the latter has failed spectacularly. Intel’s 12th and 13th Gen CPUs are much less efficient than rival Ryzen offerings, with the E-cores often degrading performance in latency-sensitive tasks. …| Hardware Times
Arrow Lake, Intel’s first chiplet-based architecture, has failed to improve the chipmaker’s standing in the PC market. Often slower than rival Ryzen CPUs in gaming workloads, they offer worse frame rates than preceding Raptor Lake designs. This has allowed AMD to reduce the market share deficit to record lows, with the Steam database close to …| Hardware Times
