AMD's next-generation Zen 6 aims for 10%+ IPC uplift, fabbed on TSMC N3 and N2 process nodes, Olympic Ridge + Gator Range= high-end desktop CPUs.

At that time, many software titles – especially games – were developed with a specific machine in mind and were tied to the specific clock frequency of the CPU to function properly.

Ever since at least the Ryzen 3000 series, AMD's release schedule for its Ryzen desktop processors has been to launch the ...

The first CPU to reach a clock speed of 4 GHz was the Pentium 4 570 released in November 2004 as part of Intel's NetBurst microarchitecture, but this milestone wasn't achieved out of the box.

The researchers said the all-optical design redefined how clock signals were generated for chips, opening the door to faster, more efficient computing. The main processor of any computer – its ...
