ASRock will support base frequency overclocking on non-Z490 motherboards. ASRock Base Frequency Boost A picture from the upcoming ASRock Intel 400 series motherboard presentation reveals that the company has developed a new technology that will bring overclocking to non-Z motherboards (B460/H470). The technology will allegedly increase the TDP of the processor to the maximum PL1 value, which would therefore as a result, increase the frequency of the processor. The slide reveals that 65W

A fresh new look. HP OMEN 15 (2020) An updated OMEN 15 model has been spotted on HP UK website. The laptop received a much different look than its predecessor. This is the first OMEN to feature Ryzen 4000 (Renoir) processor, which is paired with the NVIDIA RTX 2060 graphics card. There is no indication that we should expect anything better in terms of graphics in this laptop. AMD is dead silent about Radeon RX 5700

AMD Threadripper 3980X A mysterious (and possibly fake) CPU-Z screenshot has emerged.  It lists Threadripper 3980X with 48 cores but missing information on threads (96?). The base clock is somewhere in-between 2.8 and 2.9 GHz, so it shares a much lower base clock with 3990X. Disclaimer: such screenshots are very easy to fake. Furthermore taking a photo of the screen does not improve the credibility of this
