Added 2024-03-08 18:00:10 +0000 UTCMost discussions about "Arrow Lake vs Zen 5" tend to hyperfocus on their comparable performance without addressing the 800 LB gorilla that will be in the room this holiday season - Arrow Lake will require a new platform! How much will Z890 help, or hinder, Arrow Lake’s success?

Great job Bros! Do you think AMD’s collaboration with Wormhole could potentially create a Vegas of gaming in the future?

2024-03-09 05:13:06 +0000 UTCExcellent discussion Tom and Dan! You guys mirror my own thoughts about Intel and I also agree with that DDR5 most likely makes it to 10000 before DDR6 arrives. As for me, I would not have considered AMD again, even 3-4 years ago, but I really like the Zen 3+ CPU I now have. It just destroys my older Comet Lake i7 and uses less power. AMD is doing some good things and I hope Intel (Meteor Lake=Mediocre Lake) gets on that train with the new platform and Arrow Lake.
