FromSoftware's major Elden Ring expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, has arrived to a rapturous reception: including the highest score PC Gamer's ever given a piece of DLC (sorry, Geralt). There have been a few unforeseen issues, of course, prime among which was the deadliest bottle of perfume ever known, capable of absolutely melting through Erdtree's fearsome bosses.

We at PC Gamer are fans of Ryzen X3D CPUs. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is our number one pick for best gaming CPU. However, it's not the best all-round CPU because of AMD's conservative approach to its specifications. Its lower base and boost clock speeds cost it a fair chunk of performance compared to the Ryzen 7 7700X in apps that don't benefit from a huge amount of cache, while the Intel Core i5 13600K and Core i5 14600K remain formidable all-round competitors.
