- AMD has launched two new gaming processors — the Ryzen 9 9950X3D and the Ryzen 9 9900X3D.
- The firm claims the 9950X3D is the world’s best processor for creative work and gaming.
- It features 144MB of cache, has 16 Cores with 5.7GHz Boost and is rated at a TDP of 170W.
The first week of January has been pure extravagance for PC and laptop enthusiasts with announcements coming left and right. One of the major announcements are AMD’s Fire Range series chipsets for laptops followed by the Ryzen 9 9950X3D for which the company has made some bold claims. Here’s everything you need to know about it.
With the Ryzen 9 9950X3D, AMD claims it has made the world’s best processor for creative work and gaming. The Ryzen 9 9950X3D has 16 cores and a total of 144MB cache. Besides, AMD has also launched the 9900X3D with 12 cores, and slightly lower boost clock and TDP. The cores on both the processors are Zen 5-based.

The maximum boost frequency of the 9950X3D is 5.7GHz, 500 MHz higher than the Ryzen 7 9800X3D that was released on November 7. That alongside the higher clock speed means Ryzen 9 9950X3D will need 170W from your power supply.
All in all, AMD claims the processor offers 64% better performance than the latest Intel counterpart, the Core Ultra 9 285K. Thanks to the higher cache, it’s also 54% faster than the Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
AMD says they moved the cache beneath the CPU cores to let the latter cool down faster and not let one bottleneck the other. This should also makes CPU-intensive tasks much faster and smoother, making it a great option for both gamers and creators.
AMD is expected to start selling them in the coming months. The 9950X3D will retail for $800 whereas the lesser sibling for $700 .

- Movano is coming out with their new EvieAI coming to their smart rings.
- It is post-trained on 100,000 medical journals, including FDA-approved content cross-referenced from Harvard, UCLA, and Mayo Clinic.
- The AI chatbot achieves high accuracy rates and doesn’t provide answers to unknown topics.
Nearly every device at CES has AI labeled all over it, given its flexibility of use and marketability. But its incoherence and the room for hallucinations make it a poor choice for medical advice. So, companies stray away from it because of the major repercussions it can have on someone’s health and life. But smart ring maker Movano is coming out with their new health and wellness LLM called EvieAI, offering more reliable medical advice.

So EvieAI will only be pulling its information from this data set reducing its chances of hallucinations. The results speak for themselves as the answers from the AI chatbot are 99% accurate. That’s also because EvieAI confirms whether your query tracks with the Movano’s training data. The AI will also follow industry-standard encryption methods. Since chats are deleted periodically, no one will be able to track them back to the users.
Movano’s CEO John Mastrototaro also mentioned that the AI doesn’t shy away from saying no. If you ask anything related to a topic it hasn’t been trained upon, “it’s not going to tell you because it doesn’t have any information about that” according to Mostratotaro. He further added, “I think that it’s okay to say no if you don’t know the answer to something,”
Movano has recently re-released their Evie Ring to customers which addresses feedback on sleep data and heart rate accuracy. The company has also received FDA clearance for the EvieMED ring which is aimed at remote monitoring and clinical trials of patients. The beta version of the EvieAI will be rolling out starting January 8th to current Evie Ring users in their companion app.
Movano is trying to do something that can change the way people perceive AI. Training their LLM on just medical journals will for sure improve the accuracy of results, and they are going to be better than other general AI models. However, even Doctors coincide with each other on the recent development of new techniques and technologies. So its accuracy and how correct it stands with its answers will be interesting to see.
