Retro microcomputers, these PCs with 8-bit processors were too

Retro microcomputers, these PCs with 8-bit processors were too

Back then, a PC was extremely expensive and inaccessible to most people, and that is why microcomputers were so popular in their day. Its most common use, however, was as a video game system and they were never used as computers beyond a gaming environment, although there were people who used them for certain office ...

These are (for now) the cards for Intel Alder Lake processors

These are (for now) the cards for Intel Alder Lake processors

We are less than two weeks away and the vast majority of manufacturers who will bet on Intel and its Alder Lake CPUs have shown their models or have seen how they have been filtered. There will be more models than seen in this article, but these will all be available initially, while the rest ...

Consumption of Intel game processors is skyrocketing, up to 125W?

Consumption of Intel game processors is skyrocketing, up to 125W?

In recent times, the consumption of CPUs has been significantly increased when compared to previous generations, and in fact this is a rather worrying parameter since higher consumption not only results in a higher temperature, but also a higher electrical cost. raised. Now, it looks like the next two generations of Intel game processors will ...

They break the security of AMD processors, does the vulnerability affect Ryzen?

In an article entitled “One problem to rule them all“(Something like” a problem to rule them all “), the researchers claim that all AMD EPYC server processors and all architectural generations are vulnerable. But, before you alarm (in case you have one of these processors), be aware that this only affects the virtualization security system ...

Intel will not make 3nm processors and will copy AMD’s strategy

Intel will not make 3nm processors and will copy AMD’s strategy

For more than a decade, Intel has dominated everything to do with processors, both desktop and server, thanks in part to its architecture and also in part to its advanced manufacturing nodes. But their 10 nmThey were too ambitious to give it a very high density and wasted a lot of time in limbo trying ...

2022 iPhones and Macs reportedly equipped with 3-nanometer TSMC processors

2022 iPhones and Macs reportedly equipped with 3-nanometer TSMC processors

A few weeks ago, TSMC’s plans for the next few years began to be discussed. This company is responsible for the manufacture of chips inside Apple productsTherefore, any change can be critical. Mainly because it involves changes in their development, which generally lead to significant improvements. Apple Silicon will continue to achieve new levels of ...

Next year iPhones and Macs would add 3nm processors

Next year iPhones and Macs would add 3nm processors

Changing the size of processors is not something new in Apple iPhones and the company is expected to commit to 3nm manufacturing next year. This means that the new transistors will have a little more efficiency in the general lines than the current ones. TSMC would be in charge of manufacturing these new processors for ...

This is why AMD will overtake Intel in gaming processors this year

This is why AMD will overtake Intel in gaming processors this year

What AMD and TSMC are doing is very impressive, perhaps not at Intel’s level with Foveros (for now) but what is certain is that even if technologically they are not up to the mark for the moment. , in performance they will position themselves as leaders (except surprise with Alder Lake-S). AMD Zen 3 3D ...

Underclock, why is it used on Intel and AMD processors or NVIDIA GPUs?

Underclock, why is it used on Intel and AMD processors or NVIDIA GPUs?

We live in an age where GPUs and CPUs are evolving into two completely different aspects that are necessary and which, on the other hand, are not new at all. We are of course talking about more cores / shaders and a higher frequency, but that skyrockets consumption and temperatures to levels above what many ...
