AMD has Ryzen from the ashes and now it's time to take the fight to Intel's door. The company has done a stellar job with the new Ryzen 9 CPU.

AMD really turned it around with the launch of first-gen Ryzen, but it was still behind its Intel counterparts. The company continued to work on Ryzen, further reducing the manufacturing process, improving efficiency and performance, and launching an entirely new model for those seeking multithreaded performance. The new Ryzen 9 3900X promises 12 cores and 24 threads worth of AMD performance.
