Podcast #830 – Next-Gen Radeon Looks Strong, AM5 Revised for Zen 6, Crucial X10, Cyberpunk 2.3, ZenTimings and Self Destruction!
Not only do we never underestimate the power of sunglasses, we bring you another show after a “sick” week off. We’ve got some external storage to review, Threadripper high-wattage benchmarks, CUDA on RISC-V, Belkin bricks and some Zen memory time on top of all the other high quality news items and spontaneous commentary you know you want. And need. Chooms.
We must thank our Patreon members, because without you … we would be gone. New folks and current ones that are bumping their patronage are greatly appreciated.
This show cannot go on without you – you know who you are, please consider helping our efforts. It most definitely helps keep us on the air. And helps Josh buy burgers. Thank you!
