In the early days of computing, everything ran quite a bit slower than what we see today. This was not only because the computers' central processing units – CPUs – were slow, but also because ...
A CPU relies on various kinds of storage to optimally run programs and power a computer. These include components like hard disks and SSDs for long-term storage, RAM and GPU memory for fast, temporary ...
In this article, we'll take a look at how L3 cache capacity affects gaming performance. More specifically, we'll be examining AMD's Zen 3-based Ryzen processors in a "for science" type of feature.
It’s easy to look strictly at the type of CPU and GPU you have when evaluating the kind of performance you’re likely to get in PC games. But beyond that lies another important stat, the CPU cache.
Intel released a new CPU model this week, the Intel Core i9 7900X, which is the latest model to feature a new cache architecture that hardware experts believe it will make exploitation of side-channel ...
AMD is preparing a new flagship gaming chip, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2, which is said to have 192MB of L3 cache thanks to its dual-cache design that will add 3D V-Cache across both CCDs. The CPU originally ...
TL;DR: Intel's next-gen Core Ultra 400K "Nova Lake-S" desktop CPUs will feature 144MB of big last-level cache (bLLC) to compete with AMD's Ryzen X3D series, which uses 3D V-Cache technology. AMD plans ...
Saying that it has been a busy launch season for AMD is an incredible understatement. Not only did we see the release of the high powered, high performing Ryzen 7000X Series, but we also got a full ...
