InWin might be known mostly for its premium and often extravagant cases seen at trade shows, but this time we have a more budget focused build. Capable of holding up to E-ATX motherboards in a relatively small form factor, the InWin 216 might be for those that want some class but on a budget.

Equipped with 11 graphics cards, ten game titles, and a bunch of synthetic tests, we’re taking a look at select GPUs from AMD’s and NVIDIA’s previous- and current-gen series to see which models stand out of the crowd, and perhaps offer the best bang-for-the-buck (…at least, as far as SRP goes).

AMD has just launched its third generation EPYC server processor series, also known as Milan. This EPYC update brings AMD’s Zen 3 architecture to the data center, with its improved efficiency, faster performance, and bolstered security. With some of the new chips in-hand, we’re going to explore how AMD’s latest chips handle our most demanding workloads.

We’re taking a fresh look at workstation performance revolving (almost) entirely around the CPU. With many encoding and rendering tests in-hand, we’re exploring different performance angles with the help of our CPU collection which includes models ranging from six- to 64-cores. What matters more; core-count or clock speeds?

Blender’s latest version, 2.92, has just released, and as usual, we’re going to dig into its performance and see which CPUs and GPUs reign supreme. For something a bit different this go-around, we’re adding Linux results to our rendering and viewport tests, and not surprisingly, the results are interesting!

It’s been a while since our last in-depth viewport performance look, so we’re going to get up to speed with the latest drivers and software. We’ve integrated SPEC’s latest SPECviewperf 2020 into our testing, and also include a little Blender – so let’s see how things fare with our seventeen gaming and workstation GPUs.
