A mobile chip from Intel has once again been discovered that is part of the Meteor Lake series and has the suffix “Ultra” in its name. This confirms earlier leaks and rumors that Intel is deviating from its traditional Core naming format. The processor, originally known as the Core i7, has been replaced with the Intel Core Ultra 7 [...]
As autonomous driving becomes more prevalent, edge sensors such as LiDAR, radar and 3D surround view camera systems are becoming more common in the automotive market. This is leading to an increasing need for fast signal processing, low-cost devices and more compact form factors as more sensors are required for autonomous driving. In addition [...]
There are many hobbies (or ways to waste money and especially time) and one of them is case modding. And it is not meant in today’s article the assembly of purchased RGB-lit components, but still real manual work and customization. And so today we will write about our experience with sandblasting and coating with Cerakote. We, that is [...]
Once again, enthusiast overclockers have taken DDR5 memory to a new level of performance. Using LN2 on Intel’s Z790 platform, DDR5 memory achieved impressive overclocking speeds of 11202 Mbps. The current record was set by American overclocker SEBY9123, who used a single Trident Z5 RGB DIMM from G.Skill to beat the previous record set by [...]
Ann Kelleher, general manager of technology development at Intel, presented an overview of the company’s latest developments in several key areas at ITF World 2023 in Antwerp, Belgium. One particularly exciting revelation was Intel’s future use of stacked CFET transistors. This presentation marked the first time Intel publicly [...]
Recently, we have repeatedly seen how much performance can be packed into the smallest space with the new Ryzen CPUs. Today, it goes in the opposite direction, because Intel presents a power-saving alternative for office use with the new N-series processors. With a TDP of only 6 watts, it is almost on Raspberry Pi level. You can find out if the [...]
Terrible SoC voltages everywhere! AMD’s new horror! Say some YouTubers. But to learn more about this problem and understand why at first glance everything seems different than it actually is, we need to go back to the source, which is none other than SVI3. In this article today I will try to shed more light on this power interface used by [...]
In an interview with Tom’s Hardware, AMD’s CTO Mark Papermaster gave some insights into the company’s future plans. These include hybrid chip designs, higher core counts, and the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in both chip design and manufacturing. One important aspect Papermaster mentioned is hybrid chip designs. This is a [...]
According to the latest information, the upcoming desktop platform called Granite Ridge is expected to feature no more than 16 cores, as revealed over the weekend. PC Games Hardware and Moore’s Law is Dead have published a potential configuration for AMD’s upcoming generation desktop platform. According to the media reports, the Zen5 [...]
Recently, there has been and continues to be a lot of uproar about ASUS motherboards maintaining excessively high SoC voltages, which appear to be the problem with the Ryzen 7000X3D failures. However, as will be seen today, other brands also maintained excessively high SoC voltages, applying only a minimal drop through the new firmware versions [...]
According to a discovery by Linux publication Phoronix, Intel released CPU microcode updates Friday afternoon that extend to processors back to Coffee Lake. Unfortunately, the changelog does not contain any detailed information, other than mentioning that the new microcode fixes an unspecified security issue. The security issue was not included in [...]
There are always challenges that the company has to overcome in connection with AGESA (AMD Generic Encapsulated Software Architecture). The exact causes of the problems with AGESA 1.0.7.0 are difficult to determine, but are believed to be due to a combination of faulty or inadequately tested code changes and insufficient communication between AMD [...]
What doesn’t fit, is made to fit! A can opener can be found in every company cafeteria… Which brings us back to our Sunday navel-gazing. Whereas this is actually more about the butt.
Paulo Gomes, the YouTuber and graphics card modder, has once again demonstrated his skills by upgrading a graphics card, in this case the AMD Power Color Radeon RX 5600 XT Red Dragon, with more video memory. He has increased the capacity of the card from the original 6GB to 12GB by installing faster 2GB 16Gbps memory chips. Compared to the recent [...]
AMD recently released the technical details of its “Phoenix” series of 7040U processors, some of which are the first to feature the XDNA-based AI engine. There is currently no more detailed information on the specifications of the 7040HS processors, but the company announced yesterday that the HS chips are now shipping to OEMs and will [...]
MSI, in cooperation with AMD, has released new updates for its motherboards that are compatible with the Ryzen 7000 CPUs. Although the Ryzen 7000X3D CPU does not support full overclocking or overvoltage adjustment according to AMD’s design specifications, AMD EXPO technology can be used to optimize memory performance by increasing the CPU [...]
An Intel Meteor Lake CPU with the codename Core Ultra 5 1003H was discovered in the Ashes of The Singularity benchmark database yesterday. It is a 14th generation CPU, which was previously suspected and is now confirmed. Intel will use the new “Core Ultra” branding and thus abandon the previous “Core i” series. The chip [...]
Tests of working memory kits are actually relatively predictable if you already know beforehand which memory components are installed and how they are known to behave. It is all the more interesting when new ICs come onto the market and no one really knows what to expect. This is exactly what today’s test is about, because we take a closer [...]
AMD, is reportedly planning to launch Ryzen 8000 Granite Ridge Zen 5 processors in 2024 and Shimada Peak Threadripper in 2025. This information comes from insider reports and has not been officially confirmed yet.
