Zen 7 reportedly keeps AM5 socket and DDR5 support, easing upgrades and extending platform life. Each Zen 7 core may get 2MB ...

Let the era of 3D V-Cache in HPC begin. Inspired by the idea of AMD’s “Milan-X” Epyc 7003 processors with their 3D V-Cache stacked L3 cache memory and then propelled by actual benchmark tests pitting ...

Does L2 cache size make much of a difference? One topic that has been going around our forums for some time now is the discussion between the cache size on the lower-end Core 2 Duo processors. Both ...

CPUs have a number of caching levels. We've discussed cache structures generally, in our L1 & L2 explainer, but we haven't spent as much time discussing how an L3 works or how it's different compared ...

Confusion arose due to a discrepancy in the reported L2 cache size. Initial materials listed it as 36 MB, conflicting with earlier 2023 leaks that indicated a 48 MB cache, a 33% increase from the RTX ...

Even after all of our refinements to the technologies; even despite innumerable advancements, the single biggest bottleneck for superior CPU performance is still simply getting data into and out of ...

Lately I notice my Pentium II 300 is running rather slowly on my <BR>Old AT P2 Motherboad. PCCHIP 748LMRT.<BR>This motherboard is very dear to me since it fit in my AT Case.<BR><BR>Using <B>Sandra, it ...

I have a 15-inch ALBook and the hardware Preference Panel shows no L2 caches. You can select 512, but it does not stay that way after you close the panel. However, system profiler show that I have 512 ...
