Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a new AI-assisted tool that helps computer architects boost ...

Over the years, we have discussed several ways how to keep up with system performance. There are several third-party tools to get the job done, and also ways via built-in features in Windows 11/10 as ...

The dynamic interplay between processor speed and memory access times has rendered cache performance a critical determinant of computing efficiency. As modern systems increasingly rely on hierarchical ...

Intel has introduced Continuous Profiler, an open-source optimization tool developed by Intel Granulate, aimed at improving CPU performance by identifying inefficiencies in real-time. The tool 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 you're a budding young tech enthusiast or simply a casual PC purchaser, you may have seen "cache" listed in the specifications for this or that processor and wondered what exactly that is. It's ...

AMD’s 7800X3D and 7950X3D hold the top spot in CPUs for gaming, not because they have the most cores or the highest clock speeds, but because they have the most cache. But what is CPU cache, anyway?

The purpose of this application note is to familiarize the reader with the Level 1 (L1) CPU cache implementation in the PIC32MZ device family by bringing awareness to the hazards that can occur in a ...
