When you're comparing two of the best CPUs, the first spec that comes to mind is clock speed. It quite literally represents how fast the CPU can churn through clock cycles, and naturally, you'd assume ...

The development of caches and caching is one of the most significant events in the history of computing. Virtually every modern CPU core from ultra-low power chips like the ARM Cortex-A5 to the ...

It will be the first consumer chip built on the company's advanced 18A process node. "Along with our next-generation Nova ...

AMD’s Zen 4 3D V-Cache CPUs are true marvels of modern CPU performance. They offer exceptional gaming performance on par with the absolute best that Intel has to offer, and yet do it at a fraction of ...

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 ...

To understand the design decisions behind the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, you must understand cache and how it works inside of a processor. Cache is an often underappreciated, yet vitally important, piece of any ...

PC components explained: learn what each part does, their functions, and how CPU, GPU, storage, and cooling impact performance and longevity.

In a recent hardware deep-dive, we took a look at how CPU cores and cache impacted gaming performance. To do that, we used three Intel Core processors and compared their core scaling performance, ...
