Intel’s new 13th Gen processors have just launched, hard on the heels of AMD’s recent release of their Ryzen 7000 Series. Intel and AMD currently trade blows in Premiere Pro depending on the types of codecs you work with, with Intel leading for H.264/HEVC, and AMD leading for RAW media. Will the new 13th Gen allow Intel to take the top spot for Premiere Pro across the board?
Adobe After Effects: 13th Gen Intel Core vs AMD Ryzen 7000
Intel’s new 13th Gen processors have just launched, hard on the heels of AMD’s recent release of their Ryzen 7000 Series. Intel and AMD are currently neck-in-neck for After Effects, with the AMD Ryzen 7000 only pulling away with the 7950X in highly complicated projects. Will the increased number of efficiency cores and clock speeds on the 13th Gen processors let Intel take the lead?
Adobe Lightroom Classic: 13th Gen Intel Core vs AMD Ryzen 7000
Intel’s new 13th Gen processors have just launched, hard on the heels of AMD’s recent release of their Ryzen 7000 Series. Intel has traditionally held the lead for active tasks in Lightroom Classic, although AMD has taken the lead recently for passive tasks like exporting with their Ryzen 7000 processors. Will the new 13th Gen processors allow Intel to become the king for Lightroom Classic across the board?
Adobe Photoshop: 13th Gen Intel Core vs AMD Ryzen 7000
Intel’s new 13th Gen processors have just launched, hard on the heels of AMD’s recent release of their Ryzen 7000 Series. Intel has traditionally held the lead in lightly threaded applications like Photoshop, although Ryzen 7000 allowed AMD to largely make up the difference. Will the new 13th Gen processors allow Intel to take back firm control for Photoshop?
AMD Ryzen 7950X: Impact of Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) on Thermals and Content Creation Performance
The new AMD Ryzen 7000 Series of processors bring terrific performance across the board, but have been criticized in many reviews due to the fact that they often hit CPU temperatures of 95 Celcius under heavy loads. However, we have found that they only operate at these high temperatures when the motherboard BIOS is allowed to automatically overclock the processor above the official AMD specifications. Does running them at reference speeds impact performance, and how much of a difference does it make for thermals?
AMD X670E vs X670 vs B650E vs B650
AMD has launched their latest Ryzen 7000 Series processors, which use a new socket design and thus require new chipsets and motherboards. To fill this role, AMD is offering two chipset models with two variants each. How do X670 and B650 compare? And what differences are found in the “extreme” versions of each?
AMD Ryzen 7900X vs Intel Core i9 7900X – Battle of the 7900X’s
AMD has launched their new Ryzen 7000 Series desktop processors, and one of the new processors in particular offers us an opportunity for some unique testing and analysis. Namely, the AMD Ryzen 7900X shares the same model name as a slightly aged CPU from Intel: the Core i9 7900X. This begs the question: how does the newcomer 7900X fare against the veteran 7900X in content creation applications?
AMD Ryzen 7000 Series Processors Content Creation Review
AMD has launched their new Ryzen 7000 Series desktop processors (code-named “Raphael”) based on the latest Zen 4 architecture. These CPUs support DDR5 and PCIe 5.0, with up to 16 cores with a peak clock speed of 5.7 GHz. Along with the increased frequencies and DDR5 support, AMD has touted a 13% IPC (instructions per clock) improvement compared to the previous generation. But, the question is, how will this all translate to real world performance for content creators?
Unreal Engine: AMD Ryzen 7000 Series vs Intel Core 12th Gen
AMD’s new Ryzen 7000 Series of processors have arrived, promising faster performance along with new features like support for DDR5 memory. The previous gen Ryzen 5000 already faired well against Intel’s 12th generation in Unreal Engine. Will AMD be able to improve its lead with these new CPUs?
Blender: AMD Ryzen 7000 Series vs Intel Core 12th Gen
AMD’s new Ryzen 7000 Series of processors have arrived, promising faster performance along with new features like support for DDR5 memory. The previous gen Ryzen 5000 already faired well against Intel’s 12th generation in Blender. Will AMD be able to improve its lead with these new CPUs?
