In the intricate world of modern chip architectures, the “memory wall” – the limitations posed by external DRAM accesses on performance and power consumption growing slower than the ability to compute ...

TL;DR: AMD is reportedly developing a Zen 5-based CPU with X3D cache for Sony's PlayStation 6, featuring a UDNA GPU architecture. The new APU will enhance CPU and GPU performance through 3D stacking.

Scaling processing performance beyond the frequency and power envelope of single core systems has led to the emergence of multi-core clusters. Data access management within such processing systems ...

TL;DR: Sony's PlayStation 6 is reportedly in the pre-silicon validation stage, with its design complete. It will feature an AMD semi-custom APU with a Zen 5 CPU and UDNA GPU, capable of 4K 120FPS and ...

Many people have heard the term cache coherency without fully understanding the considerations in the context of system-on-chip (SoC) devices, especially those using a network-on-chip (NoC). To ...

It’s easy to look strictly at the type of CPU and GPU you have when evaluating the kind of performance you’re likely to get in PC games. But beyond that lies another important stat, the CPU cache.

• Cache memory significantly reduces time and power consumption for memory access in systems-on-chip. • Technologies like AMBA protocols facilitate cache coherence and efficient data management ...

Even three years later, AMD’s high-end X3D-series processors still aren’t a thing that most people need to spend extra money on—under all but a handful of circumstances, your GPU will be the limiting ...
