Intel is not facing a good stage in this year 2018. Along with its problems of its lithography of 10nm the problems of supply of the chips to 14nm are added and later it has been criticized by the data that the company in charge of analyzing its Intel Core i9 -9900K did it for “error”. Now Gigabyte hand Intel has another small front in its 9th generation due to the temperature under overclocking.
The NVIDIA RTX will complete a month from its presentation and the truth is that few data can be extracted from its performance under Ray Tracing. Let’s not talk about comparing with other architectures and much less making a comparison with an AMD graphics card, until today. Today, the real difference between the NVIDIA computing units versus the previous architectures under Ray Tracing can be accounted for.

A lot of time AMD has been asleep as far as graphics cards are concerned. With NVIDIA introducing its new Turing architecture at RTX, it was to be expected that Lisa Su would step forward and present something to compete with. For now and as it happened between Pascal and Vega, it seems that AMD is going to focus on the mid-range chip with its Polaris 30.
The wait finally ends: Intel has announced the long-awaited 9th generation of its desktop processors for mid-range and high-end, with which it intends to compete and surpass AMD. Three will be chosen for this purpose: i9-9900K, i7-9700K and i5-9600K, where only one of them will achieve the long-awaited figure of 5 GHz.

Little is known at the moment of the Vega 20 card that AMD presented at the Taipei Computer Show and that as we confirmed will come in a lithography of 7 nm thanks to TSMC and with 32 GB of VRAM HBM2 in its version for Radeon Instinct. From the presentation by Lisa Su and the filtered data of TSMC, a series of conclusions have been drawn up to the point that Vega 20 could be up to 65% faster than Vega 64.
