Can you explain to people who never heard of Computex what it is? I admit I never heard of this convention until today.

Nice. Didn't you also post the intel one with 28 cores was it?

I have a feeling intel would beat their 64 threads even with their 56 but I'm guessing AMD can demolish Intel's ($) value?

Hah. Barely a few hours after Intel teased a 28-core CPU, AMD one-upped them with a 32-core beast. Ain't competition fun?

Still, I'm actually more interested in the 7nm Epyc CPU that was also shown. They say they're going to launch consumer 7nm chips early next year. Huh. Meanwhile, Intel's 10nm Cannonlake remains a no-show.
