As contentious as the topic is among certain enthusiasts, for the most part, the presence or absence of 512-bit-wide vectors in Intel's desktop CPUs is a largely academic consideration. Very little ...

The AVX-512 instruction set has had a bizarre history. Originally introduced with Intel's Xeon Phi processors based on the "Knights Landing" design, it later found its way into the company's server ...

Intel has finally defended its AVX-512 instruction set against critics who have gone so far as to wish it to die “a painful death.” Intel Chief Architect Raja Koduri said the community loves it ...

Intel Core i9-12900K CPU was used for testing at 5.2 GHz with AVx-512 enabled. Using standard SSE2 instructions, the game only hit 5 FPS. Switching to AVX2/FMA gives us an additional 13% performance ...

Graphics Cards Intel CEO commits to building new GPUs and has hired the engineer who designed some of AMD's greatest graphics card hits to design them Processors Both Intel and AMD have warned Chinese ...

AVX-512 support was done by the developers of the RPCS3 emulator for the Playstation 3, who wanted to see how the new Alder Lake architecture behaved with their emulator. By disabling the ...
