Following on from AMD’s big reveal of the RDNA 3 architecture and the new 7000 series GPUs, Dominic sat down with Leo to go over the announcement with a fine tooth comb. They talk performance, pricing, product positioning and much more... will AMD really kick Nvidia’s ass?!

Our man Leo is currently out in Israel visiting Intel and got a chance to sit down with Marcus Kennedy. Marcus has possibly the longest job title we have ever seen, as the General Manager of the Gaming, Creator and Esports Segment in the Client Computing Group at Intel Corporation. Leo and Marcus talk all things PC gaming, including Intel's strategy for game developers and studios, cloud gaming and Arc graphics.

Leo discusses Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger's latest video, outlining his IDM 2.0 Vision...

Leo was prepared to be underwhelmed by AMD's big reveal about Radeon RX 6000 but Holy Heck did Lisa Su do the business. The new RX 6800 and 6800 XT take the fight to Nvidia RTX 3070 and 3080 but who predicted that Radeon RX 6900 XT might take on the mighty RTX 3090?

Today we are back and pleased to hit the 50-episode milestone for Leo Says! In this Half-Century special, Leo is one again looking closely at Intel and the latest news surrounding the company. There's more discussion about Xe GPUs, Ponte Vecchio, and a look ahead to both Alder Lake and Tiger Lake CPUs...

Today Leo has gathered his thoughts on the new Threadripper 3990X and gives us his immediate reaction to this performance monster, while also giving his thoughts on the CPU landscape as a whole...

Today Leo is back with another episode of Leo Says, with a big focus on the Intel XPU. A subject that has flown under the radar now for some time. What exactly is Intel's XPU all about ? Leo looks for answers.

Regular readers will have seen our review earlier this week of the new Phanteks Enthoo Luxe 2. After the review, Leo left his camera running and disassembled the system live on camera. We put some chill music alongside the video courtesy of Gavin Luke and if you guys like this concept, we will produce more in future. Let us know what you think!

Back with another episode of Leo Says, today Leo is focused on the latest news around AMD and Intel's CPUs

The last few weeks in the computing world have been dominated by AMD - the company stole the show at Computex with its Ryzen 3000 processors and accompanying X570 motherboards, while at E3 we got our first looking at the upcoming RX 5700 graphics cards. You can bet our grumpy hero, Mr Leo Waldock, has a lot to say on these two topics, so here he is with an AMD Special Edition of 'Leo Says'.

Leo builds an EPIC £3500 custom loop system, based around the Gigabyte Aorus WaterForce Motherboard

Today Leo returns with another episode of Leo Says. As always, our grumpy hero has a lot to discuss, touching first on GTX 1660 Ti and its distinct lack of RTX features. He also mentions DLSS and its limitations as explored by HARDWARE UNBOXED, while there is also news of a new 16in MacBook Pro and an overview of some announcements made at MWC 2019. You can also bet that Leo has a lot to say about the new USB naming conventions, too...

Leo is back after a brief hiatus and this week he has a lot of topics to discuss. He discusses the post I made a few weeks ago as well as VOX Media taking on BitWit for a takedown on their 'build a PC video' from months ago. It failed. Leo also discusses Intel's new W3175X £3,000 processor, the ROG Dominus motherboard, G.Skill's new high capacity memory kits and many other topics. It's a good video, even by LEO's standards.

So, the guys at KitGuru had a special project for me, they were affectionately calling ‘Project Storm’. Turns out I was to build my very first PC under the watchful eye of KitGuru Master, Leo.

Leo is back again this week and he decides to focus on graphics cards, processors, CES and the Computex 'catchup'. Its an action packed episode covering a lot of new hardware, waterblocks and trade events. Leo even discusses some of the hardware in his studio and what he has recently bought!

Today, Leo is back and he has plenty to say about Intel's i9-9900K and CPU testing, along with updates on the Supermicro spying story, new coolant from EK, and a surprise move from Nick Clegg

A lot of hot topics in for discussion today. One thing about Leo, he never minces his words.

Today Leo has a lot of questions on his mind. He considers the state of overclocking in 2018, as well as the nature of CPUs that dynamically adjust their own clock speed. There's also news about GloFlo's 7nm development, AMD EPYC copies in China, as well as drama surrounding Nvidia's RTX launch

Today Leo is focusing on AMD's Theadripper 2 processors as the first embargo has now lifted and we can reveal more information about the CPUs. Leo also discusses Apple, TSMC, Intel and ... a RGB toothbrush?

Not only do we have information on the long-awaited Nvidia GTX 1180, but Leo also discusses Intel's new 8-core processors, dubbed Coffee Lake Refresh, as well as the rumours that AMD is bringing a 16-core chip to AM4. Leo can also reveal information about a new member of KitGuru's reviewing team...

Today Leo talks about the new MacBook Pros and their long-awaited upgrade to Intel 8th Gen processors, as well as the news that Nvidia is reportedly inviting press to an event at Gamescom. Leo also discusses the plight of Raja Koduri at AMD, as well as upcoming HEDT processors from both Intel and AMD.

Today Leo touches on the rumours surrounding Nvidia delaying its new Turing-based GPUs, the upcoming Threadripper 2 processors and their model codes, as well as the drama surrounding Brian Krzanich resigning as CEO of Intel.

Today our grumpy hero addresses rumours of Intel's upcoming Z390 chipset, the long-awaited GTX 20 series, and whether reviewers take money to give products coverage.

KitGuru reviewers Leo Waldock and Briony Hannam have been up and down Taipei all week, covering pretty much everything there has been to see at Computex 2018. With the show now drawing to a close, the two got together to discuss their favourite products of the week, the noticeable lack …

This week in LEO SAYS there are plenty of hot topics at hand. Leo is discussing the first 4K/144Hz monitors, GTX 1180 rumours, the upcoming NV mobile GPU, MSI's Mech 2, Intel Z390 and much more!

Our opinionated hero is back - the man from England with an opinion on literally everything. This week Leo discusses the apparent death of Nvidia GPP (yay, but is it really dead?). We don't blame you if you missed the 'announced' death of GPP - the news appeared on a blog post on the Nvidia website (a blog post, seriously). Leo also discusses AMD going after ASROCK to find out how Tomshardware got a 580 GPU sample. For those who don't know - AMD have a rule in place that ASROCK are meant to be selling their hardware only in ASIA - but is it really worth making a big fuss over?

AMD, AMD and a little more AMD. If you are looking for Intel discussion from LEO this week, you won't get it here.

Leo is back with a bang, plenty of topics this week from Amazon, Apple and Google Profits, to AMD's upcoming Raven Ridge. And Nvidia's TitanXp Star Wars Edition - is it looking like a bargain in today's market? Surely thats not even possible ? He doesn't like miners either. Leo tells it like he sees it.

Happy New Year? Bah Humbug!
