If you're in the market for a new system and want to build a decent gaming rig for around £1,000, then the CPU has traditionally been a tricky decision (although we of course advise you to check out our latest PC Hardware Buyer's Guide and stay tuned for...
We've been watching with great interest how AMD's extensive range of Ryzen CPUs would sit not just against Intel's offerings, but against each other too. Things feel quite crowded around the £200 mark and there are significant differences too with Precisi...

Over the past few months, I rise in the morning to test out Ryzen, and I am not joking. While most of the hardware I tested pre-Ryzen launch was almost 100% Intel based, it's now actually more on the AMD side.AMD is the comeback kid, and they are slowly r...
The Ryzen 5 CPUs are solid CPUs and are extremely competitive at their price points. However, if you are looking for a CPU to do it all at one price point, that probably isn't going to happen. At one price point, Intel might be better at gaming but worse...
