Our next stop was AMD, but in this case, we didn’t have a meeting scheduled, so it was more of a self-guided tour. Surprisingly, we didn’t hear much of anything about RDNA 4 graphics cards but heard a lot about new desktop CPUs like the long-awaited 9900X3D and 9950X3D chips, Ai PCs, and enterprise-class Ai hardware. We did spy a couple of systems running the new GPUs, several of them, different brands, up on a shelf.

Joe started writing around 2010 for Overclockers.com covering the latest news and reviews that include video cards, motherboards, storage and processors. In 2018, he went ‘pro’ writing for Anandtech.com covering news and motherboards. Eventually, he landed at Tom’s Hardware where he wrote news, covered graphic card reviews, and currently writes motherboard reviews. If you can’t find him benchmarking and gathering data, Joe can be found working on his website (Overclockers.com), supporting his two kids in athletics, hanging out with his wife catching up on Game of Thrones, watching sports (Go Browns/Guardians/Cavs/Buckeyes!), or playing PUBG on PC.
Yep, in an interview with AMD today they confirmed they will officially support Bulldozer architecture CPUs on socket AM3+. Hardly news you say? Perhaps.
Another Thuban graces us with its presence today – the Phenom II x6 1100T Black Edition, AMD’s new flagship processor. Come see how it performs at stock, overclocked and under extreme conditions!
AMD has announced a new naming scheme for its mobile processors for 2023 and beyond. Going forward AMD will utilize a number coding system that is simple and logical. Each of the four digits plus a trailing letter indicates its model year, market segment, architecture, feature isolation, and form factor (i.e. TDP). Below you will find AMD’s highly informative breakdown of how this works and why they decided it was time for a change.
Somehow, I thought the 9900/9950X3D would be released at the end of January or early February. I even wanted to buy one, but in March, I would already run out of possible new motherboards for tests, which became a waste of money. Btw. you can expect some B850 motherboard reviews in the upcoming weeks.
All these RX9000 cards look so standard. The Nvidia series shouts, and AMD seems boring. I still hope for low coil whine and good performance, but current leaks give me mixed feelings about what we get.
