AMD announces a new update to address Ryzen 9000's performance woes ahead of Intel Arrow Lake launch, but it has already blown its early advantage

AMD has released a fix for its Ryzen 9000 series to address latency and power issues associated with the chips.
The firmware update is called the AGESA ComboAM5 PI 1.2.0.2 microcode update to various AM5 motherboard UEFI BIOSs.
The update allows users to configure the power draw of AMD Ryzen 9600X and AMD Ryzen 9700X CPUs in the updated BIOS up to 140W to maintain the warranty.
It also promises to improve the inter-core latency performance on the AMD Ryzen 9900X and AMD Ryzen 9950X, which use two Complex Compute Dies.
AMD said the update had cut the number of transactions in half for multi-core use cases, which helps to reduce core-to-core latency.
This fix should boost the multi-core performance that users experience with these chips.
AMD's Ryzen 9000 series had a troubled launch, but improved performance could address the concerns of gamers and creators.
However, the updated BIOS may have come too late to allow AMD to maintain gains made in the CPU sector, with Intel's latest offering expected imminently.
The latest Intel Arrow Lake desktop processors are set to be released this month.
A few months' lead time that AMD had to gain an advantage early on in this generation might have been missed.

Canon Pixma TR7020a review: a budget all-in-one with an ADF

The Canon Pixma TR7020a is a budget all-in-one inkjet printer with an automatic document feeder.
The compact printer has a nice design, but the small front display is only ideal for seated operation.
While it doesn't support full-duplex copies, Canon Pixma TR7020a ADF can copy single-sided pages and print them double-sided.
Monochrome documents are crisp, and color documents look great but take almost twice as long to print.
The printer uses Chromalife100 System13 ink that extends the lifespan of photo prints.
Canon's Pixma TR7020a is compatible with Android and iOS devices via the Canon Print mobile app.
The printer's upfront cost is low but printing can add up quickly due to expensive ink.
The printer comes with standard PG-260 Black and CL-261 Color cartridges, and the larger XL cartridges are more expensive but offer better value.
Overall, the Pixma TR7020a might work well for a home office or a part-time business that doesn’t print in high volume.
Canon’s Pixma TS6420a is an alternative that costs less and has similar performance and quality.
