@Tech_Reve on X chimed in with another Samsung-related report on X and this time, it's about mobile hardware. The tipster revealed that Samsung will use AMD graphics for its mid-range Exynos chipsets. The new GPUs will appear on Samsung midrangers as soon as next year. The two companies have been working closely together for a while now as Samsung's high-end Exynos 2200 SoC's GPU is based on AMD's RDNA2 graphics architecture, bringing technologies like ray tracing. The rumored mRDNA, however, will first appear in Exynos 1430 and 1480 and focus more on the image-processing side of...
AMD has announced its much anticipated mid-range offerings in the Radeon RX 7000 series of graphics cards. The RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT were unveiled today at Gamescom 2023 and will be available starting September 6. The 7800 XT and 7700 XT are based on the same RDNA3 architecture as other RX 7000 series graphics card. Both cards are based on a new Navi 32 GPU, which uses a chiplet design similar to the Navi 31 on the RX 7900 XT and 7900 XTX but different to the monolithic design of the Navi 33 on the RX 7600. Radeon RX 7800 XT The 7800 XT features 60 compute units and ray...
AMD today announced the Radeon RX 7900 GRE desktop graphics. Although announced first in China, it seems the card will also be available globally. The RX 7900 GRE (which stands for Golden Rabbit Edition) is a cut-down version of the RX 7900 XT with some minor reductions to the GPU and significant reductions to the memory. Compared to the 7900 XT's 84 compute units, the 7900 GRE has 80. The game clock drops from 2000MHz to 1880MHz. The 20GB 20Gbps 320-bit memory drops down to 16GB 18Gbps 256-bit, which causes the memory bandwidth to drop from 800GB/s to 576GB/s. The Infinity...
AMD has announced the new Ryzen 9 7945HX3D, the world's first notebook CPU with the company's 3D V-Cache technology. The 7945HX3D is essentially the 7945HX but with double the L3 cache. While the L1 and L2 cache remain at 1MB and 16MB, respectively, the L3 cache goes from the 7945HX's sizable 64MB to an impressive 128MB for a total of 145MB cache. Introduced first on the Ryzen 7 5800X3D desktop processor last year, the AMD 3D V-Cache technology essentially stacks an extra layer of memory on the CPU die. While most apps show no improvement from the added cache, games tend to...

AMD and Micro Center have announced a limited run launch of the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X3D CPU. This is a variant of the Ryzen 5 5600X but with the 3D V-Cache technology. The 5600X3D, much like the 5600X itself, is technically a chip that wasn't good enough to be a 5800X3D. This means instead of eight functional CPU cores, it has six. It still, however, has the full 96MB of L3 cache, which made the 5800X3D such a fantastic CPU for gaming. The 5600X3D has a 3.3GHz base clock frequency and 4.4GHz boost clock frequency, a reduction of 400MHz and 200MHz respectively over the standard...
AMD today announced the Radeon RX 7600 desktop graphics card. This is the third entry in the new RDNA 3 based 7000-series of cards and is the cheapest one yet. The RX 7600 is, in many ways, a third of a card compared to the flagship RX 7900 XTX. It has a third of the compute units and ray accelerators at just 32, a third of the stream processors at 2048, a third of the texture units at 128, the Infinity Cache has been reduced to a third to 32MB, and the video memory has also been reduced to a third to just 8GB GDDR6. The new card has a boost frequency of 2655MHz and an average game...
AMD today announced its Ryzen Z1 series chipsets developed for the next generation of handheld gaming consoles. Ryzen Z1 and Ryzen Z1 Extreme are based on the 4nm Ryzen Zen 4 architecture and feature RDNA 3 GPUs. AMD shared the Ryzen Z1 and Z1 Extreme will be temporarily exclusive to Asus though other hardware manufacturers may join down the line. AMD Ryzen Z1 brings a six-core Zen 4 CPU with twelve threads while the GPU side is covered by four RDNA 3 cores. There’s 22MB total cache on board. AMD claims the Ryzen Z1 chipset is capable of 2.8 teraflops graphics performance. Ryzen Z1...

Samsung and AMD have agreed to extend their strategic partnership from 2019 which will see AMD Radeon graphics technology utilized in Samsung Exynos chipsets. The new multi-year partnership is said to bring several generations of high-performance and ultra-low-power AMD Radeon graphics solutions to Exynos chipsets for console-level graphics quality and optimized power consumption. Together with AMD, Samsung has been revolutionizing mobile graphics, including our recent collaboration that brought ray-tracing capability to mobile processors for the first time in the industry.
