Wrap your mind around the bold curve in Samsung’s shapely Ativ One 7 all-in-one

As the market towards all-in-one solutions continues to heat up, companies from around the globe are jumping on the train with their latest innovations that provide consumers with everything they need in a single, flush, and deliciously futuristic slate of glass and circuitry.

Samsung’s new entry in this competitive arena is the curvaceous ATIV One 7. Most of what we know about the ATIV One was already apparent in last year’s original design, but what sets this iteration apart is its new (and gorgeous) curved display.

The system will feature a 27″ 1080p panel powered by a standard internal Intel HD Graphics 5000 chip. Above the screen you’ll find a 1080p full HD webcam staring back at you, hugged closely by a pair of Dolby Surround speakers on either side.

A one terabyte hybrid hard drive picks up any storage slack you might need to work with, alongside eight gigabytes of DDR3 RAM, and an Intel Core i5 processor (exact model is still under Intel’s embargo), all running a full version of Windows 8.1. Connectivity options include two USB 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0, and a 3-in-1 SD/SDHC/SDXC slot for expanded memory.

Another of the One’s standout features is Samsung’s hand gesture recognition, which automatically responds to up to 5 different hand-waving motions that can do everything from launch specific applications, to control navigation and scroll functions while browsing the web.

Samsung says we can expect the ATIV One Curved to hit shelves sometime in the early half of Q1 2015 at $1,299.99 base MSRP.

4 CPUs you should buy instead of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D sitting on a motherboard.

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is one of the best gaming processors you can buy, and it's easy to see why. It's easily the fastest gaming CPU on the market, it's reasonably priced, and it's available on a platform that AMD says it will support for several years. But it's not the right chip for everyone.

Although the Ryzen 7 7800X3D ticks all the right boxes, there are several alternatives available. Some are cheaper while still offering great performance, while others are more powerful in applications outside of gaming. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is a great CPU, but if you want to do a little more shopping, these are the other processors you should consider.

Even the new mid-tier Snapdragon X Plus beats Apple’s M3
A photo of the Snapdragon X Plus CPU in the die

You might have already heard of the Snapdragon X Elite, the upcoming chips from Qualcomm that everyone's excited about. They're not out yet, but Qualcomm is already announcing another configuration to live alongside it: the Snapdragon X Plus.

The Snapdragon X Plus is pretty similar to the flagship Snapdragon X Elite in terms of everyday performance but, as a new chip tier, aims to bring AI capabilities to a wider portfolio of ARM-powered laptops. To be clear, though, this one is a step down from the flagship Snapdragon X Elite, in the same way that an Intel Core Ultra 7 is a step down from Core Ultra 9.

Gigabyte just confirmed AMD’s Ryzen 9000 CPUs
Pads on the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D.

Gigabyte spoiled AMD's surprise a bit by confirming the company's next-gen CPUs. In a press release announcing a new BIOS for X670, B650, and A620 motherboards, Gigabyte not only confirmed that support has been added for next-gen AMD CPUs, but specifically referred to them as "AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors."

We've already seen MSI and Asus add support for next-gen AMD CPUs through BIOS updates, but neither of them called the CPUs Ryzen 9000. They didn't put out a dedicated press release for the updates, either. It should go without saying, but we don't often see a press release for new BIOS versions, suggesting Gigabyte wanted to make a splash with its support.
