Lots of interesting news today boys!

Seems this wasn't shared...

Currently, Ryzen 7000 series' CPU-Z test cannot run. Stuck in 80% due to unknown reason.

R23 FPU passed 1 hour but not for P95

P95 passed at 5.2G

FCLK 2600, 5200 CL30, 48ns.
Deepcool LS720 360mm AIO, early 90s at FPU

Sounds like you can do 5.5Ghz all core for gaming but if you do "professional" work, you would be better off running 5.2Ghz all core... Assuming you have the cooling necessary to make it work. 48ns is also impressive for ram timings.

AMD Ryzen 7700X/7600X rumored Cinebench R23 scores are in

Most likely, AlderLake S will win in Multicore thanks to all the E-cores but Zen 4 should be slightly ahead in Single Core. This is supposed to be R23 so there is a typo.

Seems powerful enough. Wonder how much of it comes from IPC increases and how much of just the higher clock speeds...

Speaking of clock speeds, the high base clocks of the Ryzen 7xxx chips are pretty interesting to me. I wonder how this will translate into the mobile APUs next year; maybe we'll get some 8c/16t U series chip with over 3Ghz base clock, Zen 3+ was already pretty close to that (2.7 Ghz on the 6800U)

GPD Win 4 is a modern Sony PSP clone with AMD Ryzen 7 6800U CPU and … physical keyboard

Wow... I am glad I didn't get GPD Win Max 2 cause this looks even more fap worthy. Granted will be much more expensive than the Steam Deck.

Seems pretty interesting, can't wait to see any reviews and benchmarks of this thing!

PS5 price to increase in select markets due to global economic environment, including high inflation rates

May as well be everywhere but the US. This feels like a foreshadowing for Lovelace and RDNA 3...

Wouldn't this be the first time that a console's normal price would be adjusted upwards after release? Or did this happen before?

I knew there wouldn't be any price cuts this gen due to the inflation, but a price increase is not something I ever expected!
