CPUs have a number of caching levels. We've discussed cache structures generally, in our L1 & L2 explainer, but we haven't spent as much time discussing how an L3 works or how it's different compared ...

"CPUcacheIs multilayered in the way that L1 is 32 KB, L2 is 256 KB, L 3 is 2 MB, why is it not possible with L1 cache of 32 KB + 256 KB + 2 MB? "Fabian Giessen (ryg) responds clearly to the simple ...

As blockchain use grows, the importance of scalability in the blockchain ecosystem becomes clearer. Blockchain networks can accept new applications and a higher number of transactions with the ...

AMD's 7800X3D and 7950X3D CPUs reign supreme in the gaming realm, not solely due to their core count or clock speeds, but primarily owing to their abundant cache. CPU cache refers to a small yet ...

I was checking out the specs at intel.com and noticed that the P4 has something called "12K µops L1 Execution Trace Cache" which is "8KB L1 data cache" <BR>The Pentium III has 32K L1 Cache (16K for ...

As the x86 performance king, Intel has done a lot of work to build and maintain their lead. After the stumble with Pentium 4, the company has come a long way. With success, however, is ever higher ...

One of the new processor architectures that Intel will release is Intel ice Lake, some new information was spotted as Intel seems to be creating bigger L1 data 48KB and L2 cache 512KB caches.
