Monero Hashrate kH/s

The crypto currency Monero has been using the RandomX algorithm since November 2019. This PoW (proof of work) algorithm can only efficiently be calculated using a processor (CPU) or a graphics card (GPU). The CryptoNight algorithm was used for Monero until November 2019, but it could be calculated using ASICs. RandomX benefits from a high number of CPU cores, cache and a fast connection of the memory via as many memory channels as possible. Tested with XMRig v6.x under the operation system HiveOS.

To trade Monero you can register with the crypto broker Kraken.com. We've been customers there for a few years now and have been very satisfied so far.

V-Ray CPU-Render Benchmark

V-Ray is a 3D rendering software from the manufacturer Chaos for designers and artists. Unlike many other render engines, V-Ray is capable of so-called hybrid rendering, in which the CPU and GPU work together at the same time.

However, the CPU benchmark we used (CPU Render Mode) only uses the system's processor. The working memory used plays a major role in the V-Ray benchmark. For our benchmarks we use the fastest RAM standard approved by the manufacturer (without overclocking).

Due to the high compatibility of V-Ray (including Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, SketchUp, Unreal Engine and Blender), it is a frequently used software. With V-Ray, for example, photorealistic images can be rendered that laypeople cannot distinguish from normal photos.

Why the new AMD Ryzen 7000 processors for the AM5 socket are currently not a good deal
Posted by Stefan on 2022-10-11
At the end of September 2022, the time had come: AMD presented its latest desktop processors called AMD Ryzen 7000. Initially, 4 processors with 6 to 16 CPU cores were released.

The new socket AM5 (LGA 1718) is used for the first time, which is intended to replace the very durable socket AM4 introduced in 2017 as AMDs mainstream platform. This includes (depending on the chipset) PCIe 5.0 support as well as the exclusive use of DDR5 memory on all AM5 mainboards.

Officially, DDR5-5200 is the maximum, but with AMDs EXPO Technology which is similar to Intel's XMP 3.0, AMD now also has a solution for easy overclocking of the main memory. AMD itself names DDR5-6000 as the sweet spot for the new AMD Ryzen 7000 processors.
The evolution of AMD Ryzen processors
Posted by Stefan on 2022-09-06
The AMD Ryzen processors are designed for the mid to high-end range and are grouped into the Ryzen 3, Ryzen 5, Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 9 classes. AMD follows the market leader Intel, which groups its Core i series (Intel Core i3, Core i5, Core i7 and Core i9) identically.

The AMD Ryzen processors were first introduced by AMD in Q1 2017. They are the successor to the not particularly successful AMD Bulldozer processors. The latter were manufactured using an outdated manufacturing process and could not keep up with the competing products from Intel. AMD lost a large portion of its desktop processor market share during this period.
AMD Ryzen 5 5500 - The CPU with the best price-performance ratio
Posted by Stefan on 2022-07-18
The AMD Ryzen 5 5500 (6C 12T) is currently enjoying great popularity and is currently one of the best-selling processors for AMD's Socket AM4 platform.

But why is the AMD Ryzen 5 5500 so cheap and what disadvantages does the buyer have to accept? We clarify that in this article. But first we have to dive a little into the technology of the current Zen 3 processors in order to understand what kind of exotic cpu AMD has actually created with the AMD Ryzen 5 5500.

AMD Ryzen 5 7600X and AMD Ryzen 7 7800X are coming in September
Posted by Stefan on 2022-06-20
After we published a performance assessment of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X last week, the well-known AMD leaker Greymon55 has now posted more informations via Twitter.

He predicts the first four models of the new Zen 4 desktop generation, which AMD would like to present at the end of 2022. There is also an alleged release date of September 15, 2022.

VS Description of the processor

The [a] AMD Ryzen 7 5700G [/ a] came on the market in the second quarter of 2021 and is based on the Zen 3 architecture with the code name Cezanne. The [a] AMD Ryzen 5 5600X [/ a] was released in the fourth quarter of 2020 and is also based on the Zen 3 architecture, but with the code name Vermeer.

Both processors are manufactured using the 7 nanometer process and require a mainboard with the AM4 socket. They support the same ISA extensions (SSE4a, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AVX2, FMA3) and virtualization technologies (AMD-V, SVM).

The [a] AMD Ryzen 7 5700G [/ a] is an eight-core processor that also supports hyperthreading, which means that 16 threads are available. The base clock frequency is 3.80 gigahertz, which can increase up to 4.60 gigahertz in turbo mode. The [a] AMD Ryzen 5 5600X [/ a], however, only has 6 cores, but also supports Hyperthreading technology, the available threads are accordingly 12. The base clock frequency of 3.70 gigahertz is slightly below that of the [a] AMD Ryzen 7 5700G [/ a], in turbo mode, however, the same values ​​are achieved again at 4.60 gigahertz.

An internal graphics unit called AMD Radeon 8 Graphics (Renoir) is used in the [a] AMD Ryzen 7 5700G [/ a]. This iGPU clocks at 2.00 gigahertz and has 8 execution and 512 shader units. This enables it to achieve a computing power of 2048 GigaFLOPS. With the graphics unit it is possible to supply up to 3 screens with one image.

The [a] AMD Ryzen 5 5600X [/ a] does not have its own graphics unit and must therefore be operated together with a dedicated graphics card from AMD (Radeon) or NVIDIA (GeForce).

For the main memory, both processors rely on modules of the DDR4-3200 type. Both processors have 2 memory channels available for operation, but with the [a] AMD Ryzen 7 5700G [/ a] up to 64 gigabytes can be operated, whereas the [a] AMD Ryzen 5 5600X [/ a] can use up to Supports up to 128 gigabytes of RAM.
