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 ...

Necessity is the mother of invention, and advances in chip packaging are catching up to those in transistor design when it comes to working in three dimensions instead of the much more limited two.

[Editors' Note, March 2, 2023: Some scrutiny by Tom's Hardware and online commenters pointed out that our integrated graphics (IGP) testing numbers for the earlier Ryzen 9 7950X chip were unnaturally ...

Cache isn’t something PC gamers think nearly enough about. At least, that seems to be AMD’s thinking as of late. With the release of 3D V-Cache on the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, though, AMD just proved its own ...

The Ryzen 7 5800X3D is the first processor to feature AMD's 3D V-cache technology that was announced last October. AMD promised 3D V-cache would bring a ~15% boost to gaming performance used alongside ...

Clearing your cache is like cleaning out that drawer. Suddenly everything works the way it should. Your phone feels lighter and runs smoother. So let's walk through every way to clear the cache on an ...

Caches are increasingly common in DSPs, but many DSP programmers are unfamiliar with their operation. This article explains how caches work, using the two-level cache in TI's C64x as an example. It ...

AMD said Monday evening at Computex 2021 that it has evolved its chiplet architecture into 3D chiplets, specifically what it calls 3D V-Cache technology. By itself, the technology promises performance ...

After it restarts, unplug your Roku TV from the power outlet. This is key. Wait for about 60 seconds. This allows any ...
