Intel 13th-gen CPUs: Revenge of the Raptor!

What a fantastic month it has been, with so much new hardware available! But what is this? It is Intel, who decided to add even more spice with their new Raptor Lake launch! Woohoo!

Potential CPU buyers had already had their options improved when AMD launched Zen 4 earlier this month, and from Intel’s timing, price, and performance, it is clear that this is a response. How good are the new choices from Intel?

Let us take a look.

The RTX 4090 (Behemoth) Update

Behold, friends-with-big-wallets: the biggest, heaviest, most expensive, most power-consuming, and *drumroll* best-performing card ever made!

Let us take a closer look.

The Intel A750 and A770 Alchemist Graphics Cards Update

Rumours of an Intel entry into the graphics card market have been circulating for years, and many people had eagerly anticipated the arrival of a third player to the discrete GPU space.

Well, it happened. A few days ago, Intel released the Arc A750 and Arc A770 cards. Let us take a look at the good and the bad of this launch.

The ‘Ryzen Ascends’ CPU Update

We are going to skip the big long AMD history lesson for this one, but if you have hours to spare and want to read about that:

- We watched the birth of weak-sauce Zen 1.
- We saw how it grew much stronger in Zen 2.
- Then it overtook Intel with the excellent Zen 3.
- But last year Intel came back with a vengeance.

Today, we take a look at where AMD lands with its Zen 4 launch.

The ‘Fair Winds Have Come’ Pre-Update

Can you feel it? The change for PC builders, not very subtle, happening even as I type these words?

The clouds have lifted. The sun is shining. The news is good. It is as follows:

The ‘A Few New Coolers’ Mini Update

Today I bring you something small and wonderful: an update for some of our highest-tier CPU Coolers!

The update is somewhat minor, as it involves only the HSFs in the top three tiers of our main chart. But the CPUs in those tiers will appreciate their ‘cool’ new allies…

Building an Insane Gaming PC with the i9-12900KS

The i9-12900KS is now among us, and it computes its way across the land like a fearsome giant. Until the next generation of chips releases in the (not-too-distant) future, this is the best CPU for gaming that is available.

It is also a CPU with a massive power draw and large thermal requirements . . . but fear not! If you are considering the route offered by this beefy component, you don’t have to walk the path alone. In this article, we’ll be taking a look at how to build an absurdly powerful top-tier gaming system with the 12900KS—all while maintaining system balance and even room for upgrades (many years down the line, when an “upgrade” might once again become possible for this system in a really noteworthy way).

The Happy Days GPU Update

At last! All modern GPUs are available for purchase, new, for MSRP. No more crying as you pay 2x or 3x the recommended price for a card. No more heartbreak as you buy a used card that has been sitting in a crypto farm for 2 years. No more sad checking on crypto prices, hoping and praying for a crash. No, friends, that time is over!

Oh, how sweet it is, to have everything in-stock and for a normal price. With that, a large number of changes have hit the charts, so let us take a look.
