But it can be quite annoying to see those counters when using apps such as Windows Terminal (though I'm not sure if this "fix" works for Windows...
My understanding is, don't trust a "mining return" of longer than maybe 2 months. It's very likely that you won't be able to get your cost back....
There was a supercomputer called Tsubame-KFC because most of its electronics were immersed in a special oil for better cooling. It was at the top...
Yeah, I agree. Unfortunately the IT infrastructures of many large corporations still leave a lot to be desired. Of course, security is hard, but...
There's an airline pilot, who is a foreigner, was infected and, during the quarantine period (airline pilots only need to spend 3 days in...
The prevalence rate is 51% among the organizations surveyed, not 85%. The 15% is those either with very good security they are confident they...
Sorry,I don’t buy it. Half a percent of 30 billion is 150 million every day. That’s mean something about twice the level of the ISS World attack...
Daily bitcoin trading volume is around US$30 billion in value. How much of that is related to malware?
It's an artificially supply-limited thing, which, in this day and age, appears to be valuable to some.
The most recent download on my GoG client (which I believe is the 1.04 hotfix) is 585MB. It did not keep the records of earlier downloads,...
Even my 2080 Ti is definitely showing its age now :P Actually the performance is better than I expected. Of course I only played the first few...
This is the official release time for PC and consoles: [MEDIA]
It's certainly possible to load compressed texture data from DRAM, just like loading from the SSD. Actually it'd be less likely to have...
Treating main memory as video memory is the main feature of AGP, which is more than two decades old. What RTX IO (and other similar technologies)...
Yeah, it's similar here in Taiwan. A large computer retailer here has 3070 and 3090 mostly available, only 3080 and 6800 are in very tight supply....
TensorFlow Blog has a post with some benchmark results from the new Apple optimized Accelerated TensorFlow 2.4 on M1:...
While many HPL jobs still heavily rely on FP64, with the current emphasis on AI computation, people are starting to look on mixed precision...
A possible Macbook Air Geekbench 5 result compared with iPhone 12 Pro: https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/compare/4653225?baseline=4648107...
The battery life figures could be all with low power cores enabled only (as in "web browsing" and "video viewing"), so it probably won't tell us...
A14 is something like ~40% faster than A12Z in single thread performance, so I don't know what you mean by "same in scale" as A12Z.
I installed it on a 512GB Plextor M8PeG (without the heat spreader). It's old but can still do up to 2GB/s reading.
I did some benchmarks on my computer (Core i7-6700K no OC w/ slightly OCed 2080 Ti @ up to 1980/7800) with various settings (in 4K resolution):...
While this is not a bad performance (comparable to the single thread performance of an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X running Geekbench 5) if true, I still...
Is this it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linking_and_intrusive_R
In a video stream, each frame has its timestamp to tell the decoder when to display this frame, so in theory VRR is entirely possible. Network...
In theory yes, it should work. DXR is just an extension to DX12 and it's added by Microsoft. However, there's always the possibility of some...
A lot, actually. For example, the computations done by a modern photo app is quite a lot. With more computation power, you'll be able to take more...
It can be quite difficult comparing benchmarks between different OS. Geekbench is probably the more famous cross-platform benchmark, with...
Apple still has only limited support for PWA in iOS 14. Personally I think the majority of those so-called "apps" are not necessary, as they can...
ASUS also has one with 4 expansions...
Since most mainstream video cards still have 8GB or less VRAM, it's unlikely that the majority of games be using more than 8GB of assets at the...
It shouldn't be surprising though, as 3090 has only about 20% more resources than 3080 in almost every measure (a little higher in memory...
ChromeOS is basically a Linux based OS which is configured to run only the Chrome browser (and other support services in the background).
Considering that not even macOS is like this, I won't be too worrying about Windows. Actually, there's already an edition of Windows 10 called...
It’s probably just because of cost. I’m not completely sure but it’ll likely need more pins to connect more devices in x8 mode as the command pins...
Completely. In a way, Steam and other digital distribution platforms do enable cheaper games through frequent discount programs. Games on physical...
Personally I believe the trend of game engines will be going toward higher compute/bandwidth ratio. The reason is that GPU is actually walking the...
While most details of DirectStorage is not public yet, it’s not hard to imagine how some of its features might be done. For example, it’s likely...
According to this review, Intel Xe seems to be doing pretty well for an integrated graphics unit. At least in 3DMark.
External connections are expensive, slow, and also power hungry, so you'll want to minimize it. If you make a chip doing frontend, and another...
I think you misunderstand that. Physical retailers take 30% or more but you still have to pay for manufacturing the physical media and probably...
I'm not sure why 30% is ridiculous. It might be, but I don't really see a good argument on how much is not ridiculous. For example, Windows is a...
But this is not going to help much. They'll just make the contract valid only for like a month, and require the users to renew it every month. If...
GDDR6's error correction feature is very similar to GDDR5, only because it has twice the burst data length, so the checksum is now 8+8 bits...
The problem with radioactive batteries is always about waste management. For example, nuclear powered pacemaker was a thing about fifty years ago....
Yeah, the profits from mining can be pretty volatile. Right now 6 Radeon VII is probably going to net you ~US$16 a day (not considering the cost...
"Mining" is not really very profitable for quite some time unless you have access to very cheap electricity. Recently, probably due to the...
Some of Intel's 3DXPoint products are in DIMM form factors, but of course it's very expensive.
I'm not an expert here but IIRC PCIe devices should be able to do P2P DMA as most devices act as masters. One such example is NVMe over Fabrics...
Just watched Tenet. It's pretty entertaining, recommended. The sound effects are a bit too loud though, but that's probably intended.
