The PC age began 45 years ago with the breakthrough Intel 8088 processor — 8-bit bus fueled 45 years of x86 dominance
Earl Whetstone won the IBM PC account for Intel and became the salesman all others would be benchmarked against.

AMD borrows $4.75 billion for ‘general corporate purposes’ — company gives no insight into how it plans to spend cash injection
If we were to speculate where AMD can put $4.75 billion, then long-term supply agreements for commodities like memory, logic production, or advanced packaging immediately come to mind. However, given the current market r…
Older Raptor Lake CPUs are a ‘core part of the portfolio’ for years to come, says Intel — there’s been a ‘sudden inrush of demand’ for LGA 1700 chips due to DDR
usertests Jabberwocky79 said: I’d be happy to upgrade to a (reliable) 14900K at some point. That’s the thing, isn’t it. Is the errata actually fixed or merely covered up with microcode patches (and subject to popping up …

Nova Lake CPUs with cut-down E-core clusters may still retain full cache pool, says new leak — 8P+12E config predictions revised from 33MB to 36MB, 4P+4E config
Previously, it was rumored that some Nova Lake configs, such as the 8+12+4 silicon, would only have 33MB of L3 cache since the 12 E-cores are cut down from the 16 we expect on the full-fat variant of this SKU. Now, Jayki…
Just one instruction on AMD’s 2015-era CPUs cracks open secret memory areas and gives full hardware-level control — exploit for 15h and 16h chip families gets y
With the map now in your possession, you can now disable Swizzle and force a read or write to normally inaccessible areas of the DRAM, since you now know where it will land. With this, you can access all the previously h…
