Culture’s calling! What to see in London in 2022

TREADING THE BOARDS  The play’s the thing! To be exact: the thing we’ve been more-or-less missing over the last couple of Covid-struck years. Luckily, 2022 is set to be a bumper year on stage.

AMD to Take on Intel’s XMP with Ryzen Accelerated Memory Profiles on AM5

AMD to Take on Intel’s XMP with Ryzen Accelerated Memory Profiles on AM5

Intel’s Extreme Memory Profiles, known simply as Intel XMP, has been a marketing advantage for Intel for many years, as it associates the company’s high-end processors with gamer-oriented high-performance RAM.
