If you've been looking to upgrade from an older system or just want to build a new one but 2026 prices have stopped you, we've got just the deal. The CPU and GPU are the two most important parts of a PC build, and Newegg is offering a solid 8-core processor paired with a strong 1080p graphics card for just over $400.
As RAM prices continue to climb, budget CPUs are becoming more important. Here, we look at the three leading CPUs around $100 that use DDR4 memory to find which one is right for your next budget PC build.
Having become the main supplier of AI accelerators, Nvidia is now on track to outsell AMD and Intel with Vera CPUs and become a leading supplier of processors.
AMD is refreshing its Ryzen AI Max chips with the new 400 series, known as Gorgon Halo, and they’ll show up in the Ryzen AI Halo development box. That box, with last-gen Strix Halo chips, is going up for pre-order in June, starting at $3,999.
A hardware leaker claims AMD is preparing to launch the Ryzen 7 7700X3D, a lower-binned version of the no-longer-available Ryzen 7 7800X3D at a lower price.
The Core Ultra 9 290K Plus, which never came out, was only marginally faster than the Core Ultra 7 270K Plus, which explains why Intel ultimately chose not to release it. On average across 1080p and 1440p games, it's only about 2% faster, and in synthetic benchmarks and productivity workloads, it's less than 4% ahead.
We tested both CPUs across gaming, rendering, encoding, efficiency, and pricing to determine whether Intel’s Arrow Lake Refresh can finally challenge AMD’s X3D dominance in the mid-range segment.
The Ryzen 9000 family is expanding with six new PRO series models that break two rules: higher than 65W TDPs and 3D V-Cache stacked underneath the CCDs. It's the first time we're seeing 120W to 170W SKUs in this lineup, along with the introduction of X3D models. General availability beings in Q3 2026.
Orders for Arm's AGI CPU double to $2 billion over the next two years in 1.5 months. While will not make Arm a major supplier of data center CPUs, it will make it a strong contender.
AMD's new Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 is a unique CPU, but how does it stack up to the single-cache Ryzen 9 9950X3D? We put the two head-to-head in a six-round gauntlet.
Intel’s Core Ultra 5 225 has been swept under the rug, given the disappointing debut of Arrow Lake, but with a slight price adjustment, it could be a compelling CPU.
AMD sets record data center revenue as demand for CPUs from the AI sector skyrockets and is poised to increase even further as agentic AI gains momentum.
A YouTuber has tested Intel's 12 P-core Core 9 273PQE and discovered the chip outperforms the Core i9-14900K by up to 9% in games potentially making the 273PQE Intel's fastest gaming CPU.
