Did AMD win CES 2025? Maaaaybe?
We asked Donny Woligroski, senior technical marketing manager at AMD, to give us more detail on the blockbuster announcements the company squeezed into a 45-minute CES keynote: the upgraded Ryzen 9 9950X3D (and how it affects the persistent shortages of the other X3D parts) and the related 9955HX3D on laptops.
