When shopping for a new CPU, you're likely to come across many different CPU specifications, such as cores, clock speed, TDP, and manufacturing process. Another important aspect of CPU hardware is ...

In the eighties, computer processors became faster and faster, while memory access times stagnated and hindered additional performance increases. Something had to be done to speed up memory access and ...

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 ...

Multi-core processors theoretically can run many threads of code in parallel, but some categories of operation currently bog down attempts to raise overall performance by parallelizing computing. Is ...

At some point you may have heard someone say that for gaming you need X amount of cores. Typical examples include "6 is more than enough cores," or "you need a minimum of 8 cores for gaming," due to ...

If a Core i9 15900K tips up with eight Performance cores and 32 Efficient cores, we're looking at potentially 56MB of L2 cache. At least. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

In a recent hardware deep-dive, we took a look at how CPU cores and cache impacted gaming performance. To do that, we used three Intel Core processors and compared their core scaling performance, ...

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 ...

Many people have heard the term cache coherency without fully understanding the considerations in the context of system-on-chip (SoC) devices, especially those using a network-on-chip (NoC). To ...
