New potential AMD hit: Ryzen 7 5700G APU is faster than Ryzen 7 5800X
During CES 2021, AMD unveiled the Ryzen 5000H and Ryzen 5000U APUs for laptops, and the Ryzen 5000G for the desktop is on the way. And judging by the Ryzen 7 5700G benchmark, the new desktop APUs may be even more popular than the simple Ryzen 5000 processors.
A Chinese source cited the Ryzen 7 5700G benchmarks in CPU-Z. With a maximum frequency of 4.75 GHz and a core voltage of 1.376 V, this APU significantly outperformed the Ryzen 7 3700X in CPU-Z. It also turned out to be faster than the eight-core Ryzen 7 5800X in Geekbench.
The rest of the tests were carried out in more gentle conditions – with a frequency of 4.625 GHz and a voltage of 1.36 V. But in this case, the Ryzen 7 5700G bypassed the Ryzen 7 5800X in the multi-threaded test, and in the single-threaded test it was slightly inferior.
It should be noted that the Ryzen 7 5800X has 8 cores with a frequency of 3.8-4.7 GHz and 36 MB of cache memory (the second and third levels in total), supports multithreading. Its TDP is 105 W. Ryzen 7 5700G has not yet been officially presented, but it is known that it also includes an 8-core CPU with multithreading support and a frequency of 3.8-4.6 GHz, a Vega 8 GPU with 512 cores, 20 MB of cache (also a total of L2 and L3). There is no exact date for the announcement of the Ryzen 5000G APUs, these APUs should be released in the first half of 2021.

Get your tinfoil hats out: how much more Windows 11 “spy” compared to older Microsoft OS

Many have heard claims that Windows 11 is heavily “spying” on users. As a recent YouTube video on The PC Security Channel shows, Windows 11 does send massive amounts of data to its own and third-party servers.
Worst of all, the OS does this before the user even installs or opens their first app. The author of the channel used the Wireshark application to analyze network activity on two “clean” versions of Windows.
The first was the brand new Windows 11, and the second was the good old Windows XP. A quick analysis revealed that Windows 11 connects to many third-party servers and services, most of which do nothing but track for ads. And it’s worth noting that all of these actions take place on every Windows 11 computer out of the box, without prompting the user and before he tries to use the Internet.
