The FAQ in the ComputerBase forum about the ideal gaming PC, which is jointly maintained by the community, has been a long-runner for 15 years: This week even the retro article, which deals with the history of the FAQs are busy sneaking into number 1 on the weekly charts – past the new APUs from AMD.
The CPU test of the new AMD APUs Ryzen 5 5600G and Ryzen 7 5700G (test), which still rely on Vega as the GPU architecture, the CPU part with Zen, made it “only” in second place 3 but have renewed. And Zen 3 significantly increases the performance compared to the previous model, although the gaming performance does not quite come close to that of the larger representatives without iGPU due to the halved L3 cache. In addition to the CPU part, ComputerBase also took a closer look at the integrated graphics unit and compared it with older APUs and low-end graphics cards from AMD and Nvidia in gaming.
Really chic and very demanding raytracing
Third place went to the technology test for The Ascent. The twin stick shooter, brought out by a small development team, looks really good and shows the cyberpunk world in a very colorful way. With the help of ray tracing, the quality of the graphics has been increased, but the ray tracing reflections cost a lot of performance. In addition, there is also a general performance problem in the game, because The Ascent has a lot of problems regardless of the hardware – patches have to be submitted later.

1- Permanent Gbit Internet for just under 40 euros
In the reports, Vodafone took first place with the gigabit cable Internet, which was again permanently reduced in price. 1 Gbit is currently available for 39.90 euros per month, provided the tariff is booked in the period up to November 1st. “GigaCable Max” costs 10 euros less than usual, and there are no shipping costs and no deployment fee. The Vodafone WLAN router is also free.
In second place went the Google Smartphones Google Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, which for the first time come with a tensor chip called Whitechapel developed by Google, which is responsible for accelerating AI calculations. Among other things, he should be responsible for a smoother operation.

A new Radeon graphics card for the entry-level segment
In the course of the coming week, the test of the Radeon RX 6600 XT and thus AMD's new entry-level model in the RDNA-2 world appear. ComputerBase is currently working on the report and has already been able to show its own pictures of the MSI Radeon RX 6600 XT Gaming X currently being tested. The graphics card is said to offer more performance than the Radeon RX 5700 XT and Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 for 379 US dollars.
