When considering the future of CPU architecture, some industry watchers predict excitement, and some predict boredom. But no one predicts a return to the old days, when speed doubled at least every ...

AMD now has Ryzen 100 Zen 3+ CPUs, Ryzen 10-series Zen 2 CPUs alongside Ryzen AI 300, 9000, 8000, and 7000 series. Phew.

Right now, 64-bit apps and operating systems are becoming the norm, rather than the exception, for Windows users. Microsoft stopped offering 32-bit versions of Windows to its PC OEM partners in 2020.

The release of next-gen gaming CPUs is inherently tied to the development of new breakthroughs in CPU manufacturing and design. One such step towards a future Intel CPU design has seemingly been ...

Until the late 1990s, the concept of a 3D accelerator card was something generally associated with high-end workstations. Video games and kin would run happily on the CPU in one’s desktop system, with ...

AMD spent four years developing its Ryzen microprocessor, and that’s the same length of time the company expects it to live on in its ongoing war with Intel in the PC processor space. Mark Papermaster ...

For the past few months, details on the Goldmont architecture (that's the Atom microarchitecture refresh that replaced Silvermont this year) have been extraordinarily scarce and hard to come by. After ...

TL;DR: AMD's Zen 6 CPU architecture is expected to be released in late 2026 or early 2027, continuing support for the AM5 platform introduced with the Ryzen 7000 Series. MSI confirms its new X870E ...

“Energy efficiency of electronic digital processors is primarily limited by the energy consumption of electronic communication and interconnects. The industry is almost unanimously pushing towards ...

Data prefetching has emerged as a critical approach to mitigate the performance bottlenecks imposed by memory access latencies in modern computer architectures. By predicting the data likely to be ...
