AMD has been working hard to boost sales of Zen 5 CPUs since their launch two months ago. After several generations of exciting Ryzen CPU launches, this one has been much more disappointing. Since Zen 5's debut, we've received a new version of Windows with AMD-specific optimizations, countless BIOS updates, new power profiles, alleged memory improvements, and price cuts. All of this has come together to make Zen 5 better… or has it?

Navi 44 will reportedly feature a package size of just 29 x 29 mm, or 841 sq mm. This makes it approximately 31 percent smaller than Navi 33, which has a 35 x 35 mm package size. However, it will still be around 25 percent larger than the 28 x 24 mm package size of Navi 24.

Small yet mighty?

Sorry, gamers, this tool is not for you.

G.Skill showcased the new memory kit in a high-end system featuring an Asus ROG Crosshair X870E Hero motherboard paired with an AMD Ryzen 7 8700G processor. While the choice of the ROG Crosshair board is understandable, G.Skill did not clarify why it opted for an 8000-series processor instead of a high-end 9000-series chip, such as the Ryzen 9 9950X, which was recently overclocked to a staggering 7.54GHz.
