Gareth Bale is ready to be the leader at Real Madrid
If you aren’t excited to see Gareth Bale play this season, then you aren’t a fan of the beautiful game. The Welsh Dragon passed with pinpoint accuracy. He flew down the wings like he was being chased. And bagged himself a goal in his second consecutive match.
Bale played a total of 149 minutes in Real’s three ICC matches. His two goals and one assist represented a tidy resumption of form for a player who made history in May’s Champions League final against Liverpool. Any thoughts as to his suitability for Real should have been put to rest beyond that point. A strong pre season following a summer of rest have shown him continue that game-changing form.
Real Madrid struggled with its finishing during the first match and a half of the preseason. The offense has looked much better since then, and a lot of it is thanks to Bale.
While Cristiano Ronaldo leaving for Juventus creates a massive hole in the pitch for Real Madrid. Bale is already one of the best players in the world. And he is ready to play an even bigger role this season. He showed against Roma that he can create golden opportunities for others as well as finish himself. This could lead to a productive season for the Wales national.
Positive takeaways from the pre season
One thing has remained constant through Real Madrid’s three games in the United States – controlling possession, plenty of shots on goal, and contributions from several players. The defending Champions League winners had 66 percent of the ball and took 16 total shots with seven on target. The defense, with Sergio Ramo back in the lineup, limited Eden Dzeko and the Roma attack to just two shots on target through the match.
If the rest of the elite players around Bale live up to expectations, there shouldn’t be much of a drop-off for the Champions League winners. As things look till now, Real Madrid are on the verge of having another great season.

AMD announces their premium, Intel beating, and record-breaking processors – 2nd gen Threadripper. Know more of its release dates, specs & features in detail
AMD has always been known to bring some evolution since the release of Ryzen processors. This year in April, they brought the 2nd gen Ryzen processors that completely blew off the first gen with its performance. They kept the cores same but increased the performance and introduced some awesome new features that Intel couldn’t think off…
At the Computex 2018, they announced the Threadripper 2900X series, with up to 32 cores. They told that they will soon bring them to market after its testing.
And now, the time has come for AMD to unveil the record-breaking processors to the market. This time there will 4 processors in the 2nd gen Threadripper series. One named the WX series(which is intended for workstation) and the other is X series.
WX series will primarily focus on creators and innovators, while the X series will focus on enthusiasts and gamers. So, let’s discuss the uses of the processors…
Amp-Up Your Designs
Stage dive into intricate 3D modeling projects and harness full suites of creative software to apply bewitching additions, adjustments, and animations that invoke the fullest expression of every element inhabiting your creations.
Tame the Most Taxing Programs
Composite, edit, and fine tune media in a quality suitable for the marquee. Handle every stage of your creative process, including VFX, modeling, editing, tracking,
Render Scenes in Living Detail
Whether it’s the dust particles caught on a breeze or acoustic modeling of an original studio recording, the 2nd Gen Ryzen™ Threadripper™ processor is capable of endowing your art with the authentic atmospheres that bring digital worlds to life and resonate with audiences.
Game for Work, or Game for Play
Experience game levels as you develop them, test new content in real-time, or just game for the fun of it while your PC compiles and renders. Ryzen™ Threadripper™ processors are so powerful, you don’t need to stop producing while you play.
The processors are now available for pre-orders from AMD’s official site. As we had seen a leap in the performance of 2nd gen Ryzen, and so you can expect a huge increase in Threadripper 2nd gen as well…
With no further delay, let’s talk more of the specs of the processor:
Specs:
The 2nd gen Threadrippers will use the Zen+ 12nm architecture that was seen in the recent Ryzen 2nd Generation processors. That’s why you can expect them to have more performance, lesser power consumption and yes an increase in the number of cores… Also, there will be a huge increase in the clock speeds that will fire up the performance…
There’s also a new set of SKUs intended to cater to customers who are exclusively interested in Threadripper as a rendering or HPC solution.
24-cores, 48-threads, clocked at 3.0GHz to 4.2GHz,
64MB L3 cache
250W TDP
64 PCIe Gen 3.0 lanes
Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX:
32-cores, 64-threads, clocked at 3.0GHz to 4.2GHz
64MB L3 cache
250W TDP
64 PCIe Gen 3.0 lanes
X SERIES:
Ryzen Threadripper 2920X:
12-cores, 24-threads, clocked at 3.5GHz to 4.3GHz
32MB L3 cache
180W TDP
64 PCIe Gen 3.0 lanes
Ryzen Threadripper 2950X:
16-cores, 32-threads, clocked at 3.5GHz to 4.4GHz
32MB L3 cache
180W TDP
64 PCIe Gen 3.0 lanes
Performance
The main highlight of AMD’s Ryzen Threadripper 2nd Generation lineup has to be the 32-core and 64-thread 2990WX. There has been a major increase in clock speed with support up to 4.2GHz which is more than the 4.0GHz, seen in the previous Threadripper.
The chip achieved a world-record Cinebench R15 multi-threaded CPU test scores in the single-socket desktop processor category. This makes the cheap greatest and the best, and it is highly recommended for professional content creators, developers, and PC enthusiasts.
The 2nd-gen Threadripper is also highly overclockable. The AMD’s overclocking team has managed to take the Threadripper 2990WX CPU to over 5.1GHz using liquid nitrogen cooling, achieving a record-breaking Cinebench R15 multi-threaded CPU test score of 7,618,
It is comfortably beating the current single socket record set by Intel’s Core i9-7980XE CPU at 5,828 points.
AMD’s new 12-core and 16-core chips are clocked slightly higher (7.5 percent and 10 percent for maximum boost, respectively, with the 2950X’s base clock coming up by 3 percent).
These processors will require heavy cooling, so AMD has partnered with third parties for better liquid cooling than it’s provided one. You can have a look at that from here.
Luckily, AMD is also sticking to the same TR4 Socket, so anyone looking to upgrade once Threadripper Generation 2 drops shouldn’t have to worry about buying a new board.
2nd Gen Ryzen™ Threadripper™ processors will work on future-proof X399 motherboards with a simple BIOS update. Here are the motherboards that will support the new beasts:
The Ryzen™ Threadripper™ processor can support Workstation Standard DDR4 ECC (Error Correcting Mode) Memory to keep you tight, tuned and perfectly in sync.
The processors will also include AMD’s newest features like AMD StoreMi, AMD SenseMi, AMD Ryzen Master Utility and others…
Price & Availability
The processors will be available in a timeline given in the picture above. The price of the processors are:
Ryzen Threadripper 2920X:
$649 will be available from Oct 2018
Ryzen Threadripper 2950X:
$899 will be available from Aug 31, 2018
Ryzen Threadripper 2970WX:
$1,299 will be available from Oct 2018
Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX:
$1,799 will be available from Aug 13, 2018
The current competitor for the 2920X based on price would be the Core i7-7820X. It is an eight-core / 16-thread CPU with a maximum Turbo clock of 4.3GHz and a $599 price tag.
With 50% more cores, the 2920X should be much better to this chip, while Intel’s 7900X remains the best point of comparison for the updated 2950X.
The 24-core Threadripper 2970WX and 32-core Threadripper 2990WX seem to get no competition to Intel’s High-End Desktop Lineup. The 18-core Core i9-7980XE offers the closest comparison and equivalent price, at $1,799.
And, we see that both of the high-end processors comfortably beats Intel’s highest-end processor. This makes the 2nd gen Threadripper “Intel-beating” as well…
To wrap things up, we quote Jim Anderson, senior vice president and general manager, Computing and Graphics Business Group, AMD:
“Our goal with 2nd Gen Ryzen Threadripper processors was to push the performance boundaries even further and continue innovating at the bleeding edge. Beginning on August 13, creators, enthusiasts, and gamers everywhere will get to experience the benefits of these new products.”

The Kolkata giants came back from a 0-1 deficit to beat NBP Rainbow A.C 3-2 in their second match of CFL 2018…
Mohun Bagan climb to the top of Calcutta Football League 2018 Premier Division ‘A’ table by beating NBP Rainbow A.C 3-2 on Tuesday at the Mohun Bagan ground.
Abhijit Sarkar gave the visitors the lead in the 39th minute from a free-kick. Aser Dipanda, Abhishek Ambekar and Azharuddin Mallick scored in the second half to hand Mohun Bagan a 3-1 lead in the second half. Joel Sunday scored a consolation goal in the 83rd minute.
Shankarlal Chakraborty made three changes to the starting eleven that clinched a 1-0 win over Pathachakra. Aser Pierrick Dipanda replaced Henry Kisekka in the attack, Abhishek Ambekar replaced Basant Singh on the flanks whereas Amey Ranawade was relegated to the bench in favor of Gurjinder Kumar.
Mohun Bagan started in the ascendancy and they could have gone ahead in the 15th minute when Godwin Quashiga’s attempt to clear the ball almost landed inside the net. Minutes later, Shilton D’Silva had a crack at goal from a set-piece but his effort was negotiated at the expense of a corner which the referee chose to ignore.
Bagan was defending in a 4-4-2 with Ambekar, Kingsley, Kimkima, and Gurjinder at the back but resorted to a three-man backline on occasions when they had full control of the ball.
Rainbow survived a scare in the 26th minute as Pintu Mahata’s right-footed screamer which was destined to bulge the net was parried away for a corner by goalkeeper Dibyendu Sarkar. The resulting corner was cleared away to safety from the goal-line by Rainbow’s defense.
But Abhijit Sarkar’s peach of a free-kick beat Shilton Paul in goal in the 39th minute after Kingsley fouled Sujay Dutta just outside the penalty box.
Bagan sealed the three points in the 73rd minute when Azhar scored the third goal after Kingsley headed down a flag-kick floated in by Hossain.
Although Joel Sunday pulled one back on the 83rd minute after Shilton Paul failed to punch away a routine cross, it was not enough for Rainbow to secure a point.
Mohun Bagan will next face George Telegraph on August 12 in the Calcutta Football League, 2018.
