After the release of Zen3, AMD and Intel Nvidia fell in love and killed each other.

When talking about AMD, there is always a sense of sadness. This feeling mostly comes from its two main competitors in the industry. AMD is currently one of the few companies that has both CPU business and graphics card business lines and both have strong competitiveness. Speaking of its two current competitors, everyone must be familiar with them. They are Intel in the processor field and Nvidia in the graphics card field. They are the leaders in their respective fields. AMD, which is sandwiched between these two giants, can also be said to be The ratio is more than better than the lower, but the recent appearance of the Zen3 architecture has made us think more about AMD.

AMD has not always lagged behind Intel in terms of processors, but the emergence of Core has allowed Intel to firmly occupy the mid-to-high-end processor market. This is also the result of the failure of AMD's "bulldozer and pile driver" architecture, so AMD Most of them can only linger in the mid- to low-end market. Saying this reminds me of the scene I saw when I first walked into the Computer City. The staff's speakers were roaring with the slogan "Dual display crossfire game without lag, cheaper price" for an AMD laptop. If It's okay to buy it for office use and browse the web, but it's unrealistic to expect it to be able to "play games without lagging". Many people may have experienced such slogans and slogans.

Since the release of the first-generation Zen architecture, AMD has gradually won market praise and regained consumer confidence. Although the first two generations of Zen and Zen+ architectures still lag behind Intel processors of the same level in terms of single-core performance, single-core performance can reach 80 or 90% of Intel processors, with more cores. It can also surpass Intel in certain scenarios, when the most important thing is "cheap price".

The arrival of the Zen2 architecture has further improved Ryzen’s single-core performance, and this time Zen3’s IPC performance has increased by 19%, which is a big improvement in both single-threaded and multi-threaded aspects, although these are AMD official tests Data, but judging from the leapfrog naming method from Ryzen3000 directly to Ryzen5000 (desktop), the performance of AMD’s new Ryzen this time is very worthy of our expectations.

In the field of independent graphics cards, Nvidia has always been inescapable. The new RTX30 series graphics cards have made many improvements to ray tracing and DLSS, and while the performance has improved, the price has also dropped. For many gamers and productivity users, when choosing a computer, most of their first impressions are NVIDIA products.

This Zen3 conference mentioned the new Radeon graphics card. The new Radeon 6000 series graphics card used by AMD is paired with Ryzen 5900X. Borderlands 3 can stabilize 60 frames and war in 4K quality. Machine 5 maintained at 73 frames, which inevitably aroused everyone's interest in Radeon 6000 series graphics cards. Although AMD did not mention the specific model of the graphics card used, it always makes people want to compare it with Nvidia's new RTX30 series graphics cards.

Intel is on the left and Nvidia is on the right. Although many details of this conference require further consideration, will the flexing of muscles of the new Ryzen and new graphics cards make you say AMD Yes in your heart?
