Join us as we explore the ups and downs of AMDs 2023, weighing everything up at the end.
This was a definite highlight in AMDs releases this year.
For gamers, AMD had some tempting pricing, thats for sure.
Then finally, at the end of September,AMD officially released FSR 3.
However, it wasnt a simple case of thats that and AMD was level-pegging with Nvidia suddenly.
On top of this, AMD also made FSR 3 open source.
(Nvidias melting cables with the RTX 4090 being another obvious one).
We also witnessed a worrying flaw with AMDsRyzen 7000 CPUs randomly burning outin certain overclocking scenarios.
Ouch, in a word.
And we also sawAMD chips that had security flawsof one kind or another,some more worrying than others.
Concluding thoughts
Clearly, AMD tried the patience of gamers in some respects this year.
However, the latter were very much worth the wait.
We also received a top-notch mobile APU for handhelds in the Ryzen Z1 Extreme.
In short, despite some worrying wobbles, 2023 was a good year for AMD.
