AMD X570 vs B550 vs A520 Chipset Comparison

Hardware Article Posted on November 13, 2020 by William George

AMD has three current chipsets for their mainstream Ryzen processors, each targeting a different segment of the market with appropriate features and pricing. What is the difference between each of these chipsets, though? Knowing that can help make sure you get the right motherboard for your next workstation PC.

Messy Memory Speed Standards

Hardware Article Posted on November 9, 2020 by William George

Here at Puget Systems, we have tried to be careful about sticking to CPU manufacturer memory specifications – to ensure the best reliability, and to avoid overclocking memory controllers (which could, technically, violate CPU warranties). But increasingly complicated memory speed support schemes on many newer processors, combined with a lack of supply of certain speed modules, has forced us to adopt a new approach to what we offer in our workstations.

What is Virtualization All About

Support Article Posted on November 6, 2020 by Chad Warmenhoven

Virtualization is the process of creating a software-based, or virtual, representation of something, such as virtual applications, servers, storage and networks.

VirtualBox 1 – The Basics of VirtualBox

Support Article Posted on November 6, 2020 by Chad Warmenhoven

VirtualBox 2 – Installing VirtualBox

Support Article Posted on November 6, 2020 by Chad Warmenhoven

Oracle VM VirtualBox comes in many different packages, and installation depends on your host OS. We will cover Windows 10 installation in this article.

VirtualBox 3 – Creating Virtual Machines

Support Article Posted on November 6, 2020 by Chad Warmenhoven

There are a litany of options to choose from during the VM creation process but for our first VM we will keep it simple.

VirtualBox 4 – Using Snapshots

Support Article Posted on November 6, 2020 by Chad Warmenhoven

Snapshots are a powerful and easy to use feature that allows you to save a VM in it’s current state. In this article we will discuss how to create and restore a snapshot.

AMD Ryzen 5000 Series CPU Review Roundup

Hardware Article Posted on November 5, 2020 by Matt Bach

AMD’s new Ryzen 5000 Series processors are here, with significant improvements including an advertised 19% improvement in IPC (instructions per clock). This should result in large performance gains across the board, but exactly how well do these CPUs perform in the real world?

V-Ray Next: AMD Ryzen 5000 Series Rendering Performance

Hardware Article Posted on November 5, 2020 by William George

AMD is giving us the first taste of their new Zen 3 microarchitecture in the form of four Ryzen 5000 Series CPUs. This generation is supposed to have dramatically faster per-core performance than previous AMD processors, so what sort of impact does that have on CPU-based rendering engines like Chaos Group’s V-Ray? And how do these new models fare against other AMD and Intel processor families?
