AMD’s new Ryzen 3rd generation processors feature both an increase in core count and per-core performance, allowing them to rival Intel’s mainstream Core processors in many professional applications. The first chips in this series did well with RealityCapture in our previous testing, but didn’t quite beat Intel’s Core i9 9900K, so now we are going to see how the top-end Ryzen 9 3950X fares.
AMD’s new Ryzen 3rd generation processors feature both an increase in core count and per-core performance, allowing them to rival and sometimes beat Intel’s mainstream Core processors in professional applications. Since AMD has finally released the top model in this series, the Ryzen 9 3950X, we decided to take a look at how it and some other competing CPUs handle Pix4D – which benefits from both core count and clock speed at various points throughout its workflow.
AMD has launched the top-end model in their 3rd gen Ryzen processor family, a 16-core processor named Ryzen 9 3950X! We’ve tested it across a wide range of real-world applications, and are very excited about being able to offer this CPU in our workstations after AMD releases it for sale November 25th, 2019.
Over the last year, we have been hard at work improving, polishing, and making our internal benchmarks available to the general public. But why are we spending so much effort on this project? After all, this kind of development takes a significant amount of time, and is often much harder to do than you might realize since most applications are not made to be used in this manner.
At events like Adobe MAX, NAB, or SIGGRAPH, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning is always a hot topic. Creatives love what it is already doing to speed up or enhance their work, but there is almost always an underlying fear that one day, AI will replace them. Is that a valid worry, or is AI just a fad that will pass?

Our systems have moved to almost entirely to solid-state drives (SSDs) for primary storage, making our old video looking at hard drive vs SSD boot times rather outdated. But are all of the SSDs we use equal, or are there benefits to one over another for typical computer usage? We compared four of the Samsung models we carry to see how they compare in boot up, file copy, and application launch times.
I had an experience with Office 365 that’s made me reconsider how I feel about the SaaS (software as a service) model. When Microsoft began offering Office as a subscription, I jumped at the opportunity. The idea of paying a reasonable monthly fee in exchange for the latest version and features seemed like a great deal.
Microsoft has provided details on a Windows Update that will break bluetooth functionality in a significant number of devices such as headphones, keyboard/mice or even security devices such as key fobs.
Puget Systems has worked directly with NVIDIA to provide turnkey solutions for data scientists. We’ve taken our approach of optimizing hardware configurations for specific use cases and paired that with an installation of RAPIDS, NVIDIA’s open source, GPU-accelerated platform for data science. This allows you to get up and running faster as well as makes you more efficient during testing and development.
Puget Systems builds custom workstations, servers and storage solutions tailored for your work.
