Clearing your TV's cache can greatly decrease stuttering and improve performance. Here's how to do it on brands like Samsung, LG, and more.
Android phones rarely slow down overnight. Performance usually erodes in small, frustrating steps as apps pile up temporary ...
The dynamic interplay between processor speed and memory access times has rendered cache performance a critical determinant of computing efficiency. As modern systems increasingly rely on hierarchical ...
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 ...
AMD is working on a mysterious dual-cache Ryzen processor, and early benchmarks give us a glimpse of what its bigger L3 cache ...
In the early days of computing, everything ran quite a bit slower than what we see today. This was not only because the computers' central processing units – CPUs – were slow, but also because ...
The shorter the distance application data has to travel to drive a web application, the better the user experience will be. Developers have a wide array of places to use a data cache, but each comes ...
As discussed in part one, one of the reasons cache coherency is becoming more important is the shared common memory resource in designs today. Various agents in the design want to access the data the ...
Most of us have a pretty simple model of how a computer works. The CPU fetches instructions and data from memory, executes them, and writes data back to memory. That model is a good enough abstraction ...
Necessity is the mother of invention, and advances in chip packaging are catching up to those in transistor design when it comes to working in three dimensions instead of the much more limited two.
