Weekly review and outlook AMD B550 Intel gaming PC & Huawei zoom smartphone

Weekly review and outlook AMD B550 Intel gaming

In the tests and reports last week, the new B550 chipset from AMD Intel’s Mini-gaming PC with Geforce RTX 2070 ran out of place. The P40 Pro+ from Huawei with its 240 mm zoom and ceramic back for the price of 1,399 euros was of interest to most readers.

AMD’s alternative to the X570 chipset

Last week’s most-viewed article by readers revolves around AMD’s new B550 chipset for their own Ryzen processors. After almost a year, the new B550 chipset is the first and cheaper alternative for Pcie 4.0 to the X570 chipset. Even if the first motherboards with B550 are not yet among the most favorable representatives, the chipset will make the entry for a mainstream PC with AMD Ryzen cheaper. In most cases, the performance is in no way inferior to the X570.

Intel Gaming PC in 5-litre case

In second place is the test for the Intel NUC9 Extreme Ghost Canyon, a small gaming PC in a 5 liter case with Intel Core i9-9980HK and Geforce RTX 2070. The test model brings it with this equipment to a price of about 2,800 euros, even the entry is without GPU and memory with 1,600 euros high. However, the performance remains behind that of a full-grown PC with the same graphics card and the upgrade possibilities are severely limited.
