It seems that the Red Team is not stopping after the successful Ryzen 3000 lineup. Having the immense successful Zen 2 architecture in hand, AMD wants to maximize its potential by offering customers cutting-edge CPUs at every budget.
Recent reports say that AMD is outselling Intel in huge numbers, thanks to the Ryzen 3000 processors. We know that both the Rzyen 7 3700X & Ryzen 9 3900X has made grabbed the attention of almost all gamers, making them the bestsellers including the Rzyen 5 3600X.
Some leaks say AMD is working on releasing some more CPUs in the coming days, Ryzen 9 3900 will surely be one of them. The availability of Ryzen 9 3900X has become a huge problem for consumers that has led huge price hikes in the market.
Maybe that’s because AMD wants to release an affordable 12 core option for the hungry gamers in the market.
AMD Ryzen 9 3900 CPU Specs Leaked features 12 Cores & 24 Threads at 65W
Through leaks by the AMD’s motherboard partners, we now know that the Ryzen 9 3900 definitely exists and is, in fact, coming soon. The CPU was mentioned as a part of BIOSTAR’s new BIOS update for its new X470NH motherboard, which will surely support the upcoming chip.
Talking about the specs, the Ryzen 9 3900 CPU features 12 cores and 24 threads, just like the Ryzen 9 3900X. It has some tame clock speeds of a base frequency of 3.1GHz and Turbo of up to 4.3GHz. This has helped it to shave 40W off its big brother’s TDP of 105W down to 65W.

This will be interesting to see how the Ryzen 9 3900 will fit with the upcoming Ryzen 9 3950X which is all set to launch in November. With the growing demand for TSMC’s 7nm process, definitely AMD will face a hard time in meeting customer demands.
Packing 12 Zen 2 cores and 24 threads in a 65W package is quite impressive and you can always overclock these CPUs to maximize performance. Those who cannot get hold of Ryzen 9 3900X but want a 12 core CPU for their PC like content creators, video editors can always buy the Ryzen 9 3900.

Mourinho said managing Real Madrid was the best phase of his career.
Jose Mourinho is one of the most successful coaches of this generation. He has enjoyed two successful spells with Chelsea. He has also coached Porto, Inter Milan and Manchester United.
Mourinho also had a three-year spell at Real Madrid. In his time at the Bernabeu, he won one La Liga title and one Copa del Rey.
Jose Mourinho told to a Portuguese TV channel: “Real Madrid was my best experience because of what I learned as a coach, as a man, from the lessons I took in my career and in my life. It’s the best memory of my career, it was fantastic. What they asked me to do at Real Madrid suited my nature. They told me that we had the best team in the world on the other side, that they were crushing us, and we had to reverse the situation.”
Mourinho and then-Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola formed a spiky rivalry during their time together in La Liga before Guardiola left the Blaugrana in 2012. Mourinho departed Real Madrid the following year.
Jose Mourinho said in an interview with Tiki Taka about his two-year spell in charge of Inter: “Inter is my home and Moratti remains both my President and friend. It’s as if he was my family, and I feel his family in a special way: everyone at Inter is really special. My job also consists of finding the empathy I had with Inter fans. I give my all. I join a club, I take the shirt, I wear it and I live with that shirt. I create empathy with fans and antipathy with opponents, but I believe this empathy is important for creating a bond and a special relationship with them. Afterward, of course, when you win and trophies arrive, this empathy can be transformed into passion, which is what it was.”
“There were crucial matches in the race for the Scudetto, Coppa Italia and Champions League. The victory in Kiev, for example, was the start of everything. The defeat in Barcelona was the best defeat of my life. After practically two weeks between the Finals of the Coppa Italia and Champions League, it almost looked like a movie with ‘the perfect end’ to a story that was fantastic for me.”
Mourinho also commented on his move to Real Madrid: “I knew it would go how it did. The first year, after winning the league, which was almost normal for Inter, I understood the emotion of their fans so I could only imagine, after experiencing that emotion after the semi-final against Barcelona, what the city of Milan would be like after Madrid. Everyone in the squad, not just the players but also everyone one, was a big family: I preferred to leave before returning because it was already a difficult situation in the dressing room and I realised it would’ve been even more difficult on the bus. I knew that if I came back, I would’ve said ‘no’ to Real Madrid for the third time, but I had in mind to win La Liga and the Premier League, and I didn’t want to miss this third chance with Real.”
He spoke about his future plans too: “I haven’t worked for seven, eight months so we’ll see what happens, but I don’t think I’ll come back to work in Italy. It’s a sensation, but I don’t think my future will be in Italy.”
According to various reports, Jose Mourinho is waiting in the sidelines to replace Zidane at Real Madrid. But this news is far away from becoming reality as Real Madrid allocated huge funds for Zidane in this transfer window to help him build the squad that he wished for. Along with that, Zidane’s side is slowly getting back to their best and it seems there lies ahead another successful spell under Zinedine Zidane.

Buffon has surpassed Paolo Maldini’s record for the most games played at club level.
Gianluigi Buffon is back with Juventus after a single season with PSG. He made his 903rd appearance for Juventus in Saturday’s 2-0 Serie A win over SPAL to break Maldini’s appearance record.
Milan legend, Paolo Maldini had played 902 games for the Rossoneri, a record that stood until Saturday. Buffon has now surpassed him after playing his 903rd match for Juventus against SPAL.
Buffon revealed his joy after surpassing Maldini and achieving this feat. He told reporters: “It’s a great satisfaction, I wasn’t aware I was so close to this record two games ago, I found out at the last game. I was told I had reached Paolo [Maldini]. It makes me very happy and very proud, proud for what I did, but as I said to your colleagues, I am happy because I got here not dragging myself, but as a high-level player. That’s what I think I can say without being presumptuous. Therefore I also added, earlier on, that I will always thank my parents and my wife, which has been benevolent with me, but I can also say that there’s something of my own in all this.”
Paolo Maldini had spent his entire career with Serie A side AC Milan. But Buffon’s appearances have been spread across three clubs. He played 220 matches for Parma at the start of his career. Then he was used 25 times in a largely underwhelming campaign with PSG last season. And now he has featured 658 times for Juventus.

Real Madrid’s Galactico summer signing Eden Hazard is yet to hit his full form at the Bernabeu.
After a frustrating last season, Real Madrid signed Eden Hazard to improve their squad and challenge for all the titles once again. Hazard joined Real Madrid from Chelsea in this summer transfer window in a deal that could reportedly cost up to €140million.
Unfortunately, just as the new season was about to begin Hazard suffered a thigh injury that caused an early disruption in his Real Madrid career.
Now, Hazard is almost back to full fitness and has made three starts for Real Madrid in the last four matches. But the worrying sign for Real Madrid is that Hazard hasn’t yet shown his full potential here. Real Madrid needed a match-winner after the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo in the summer of 2018. They signed Hazard to add that X-factor in their squad. But till now he hasn’t been that Galactico signing that the Bernabeu hoped for.
Eden Hazard told reporters ahead of the Champions League clash with Club Brugge on Tuesday: “I am not yet a galactic, I have to be the one to prove that I can be out on the pitch. We all know the history of the number seven jersey in this club and I have to be the one to prove that I can be the best in the world. I want to enjoy myself on the pitch, give the maximum, not only in games but also in training. I don’t doubt myself, I don’t doubt my coach. It’s all a matter of trust. I’m confident and sure everything will work out fine.
He further added: “The criticism doesn’t affect me. I haven’t noticed much. I know when I work to the fullest, everyone expects me to score three goals in each match. I think I can do better, I am also critical of myself, but working every day. Maybe I have a little delay because of the injury, but I am 100 percent. I now have to demonstrate my level and improve so the fans are proud of me.”
Real Madrid head coach Zinedine Zidane also sounded relaxed regarding the form of Eden Hazard. He told: “I’m not going to give him some advice on how to play. He knows we want more from him and we know the player he is, we have to be calm. I’m not worried at all, I know he will succeed here. We have to be calm with the players who have just arrived.
“The same thing happened to me, yes, but that’s why I’m very calm. I knew it would work with time. It was worse when I arrived in Italy because it took me three months [to settle] there.”
“The same with Hazard, I know he is going to succeed here and he is going to get settled. It has nothing to do with his physical condition. I would like [immediate improvement] for the team and for him, but we’re calm.”
