I Reietti dell'Altro pianeta è un romanzo che unisce in modo quasi unico distopia e utopia, in una narrazione che risulta ancora fresca e sorprendente quasi 50 anni dopo la sua pubblicazione.
If you can read italian, here’s my article about The Dispossessed, utopias and dystopias on Tom’s Hardware Italia!
Remember when the USB 3.0 standard was eventually rebranded to USB 3.1 Gen 1? Well, history is about to repeat itself once again. The USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF) announced at MWC 2019 that the new USB 3.2 standard will absorb the prior USB 3.0 and USB 3.1 specifications. Both USB 3.
One reason for the cooling problem is Intel's use of inadequate (but arguably much cheaper) thermal paste instead of indium-based solder. Although we can debate the durability of solder over time, particularly as it relates to CPUs with small dies, we...
I think Skylake X (s2066) reintroducing IVR, after its removal on the Skylake S (s1151) is almost metaphorical in how rushed, inconsistent, and unvetted this platform launch has been.
I know people have beat up on THG in the past, but they were one of the first to talk of the FuryX throttling and now they are substantiating derbaurer’s x299 video observations as well. You have to give credit where its due.
Motherboard manufacturers could have and should have known that Intel's Skylake-X CPUs would consume power indiscriminately, in spite of the company's laughably low TDP specifications. Everyone has access to Intel's datasheets, not just us.
Consider also the difficultly of identifying what is causing throttling - BIOS settings, thermal limitations (CPU, VRM, or a combination of both), or even AVX-512 oddities and THG’s finding echoing what der8auer already spoke of last week. It actually does make slightly more bearish now on CoffeeLake, if THG reviewer Igor is correct on Core truly being tapped out.
Contrast that with Ryzen, which if it gets *any* clock headroom on the refresh at all, stands to gain significantly.
