5 GHz processor

14.06.2013

Already in the summer of 2013, AMD plans to ship the first desktop processor capable of operating at 5 GHz. AMD has unveiled the world's first 3GHz-capable personal computer processor, the AMD FX-5, at the E9590 gaming industry show in Los Angeles.

The AMD FX-9590, codenamed Vishera, is based on the Piledriver microprocessor architecture, which is the successor to the Bulldozer. The processor has 8 cores and is manufactured based on the 32nm process standard. The company did not disclose the technical characteristics of the processor, including its power consumption, however, as DailyTech explains, we are talking about the frequency in the Turbo Core technology activation mode, that is, in the overclocking mode. The approximate value of the base frequency is 4,5 GHz.

All processors in the AMD FX line support Turbo Core technology, but none of them is capable of operating at frequencies above 4,2 GHz. The power consumption (TDP) of the most powerful AMD FX processors in existence is 125W.
The new chip, like other processors in the family, is designed for gamers and enthusiasts. AMD plans to start shipping it in the summer of 2013.

In addition to AMD FX-9590, the company introduced the FX-9370 model with support for 4,7 GHz. It is also based on the Piledriver architecture, has 8 cores and is manufactured on the basis of the 32nm norm. Both processors support overclocking, that is, the clock frequency at which they are able to operate can be increased.

AMD's success story includes first breaking the 1 GHz milestone in 2000, as well as the release of the first true 2- and 4-core processors (all cores on a single die) and the release of the first APU (central and graphics cores on a single die) . Now AMD does not own production facilities, but is only engaged in design activities. In 2009, the company's factories were spun off into Globalfoundries, a joint venture with Arab investment company ATIC. Globalfoundries, among other things, manufactures AMD processors.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Rectal joystick 11.05.2020

Now a person can control robots and other devices with his sphincter. You can, of course, laugh at the rectal joystick, but it will allow some people who do not have the ability to control electronic devices with voice or gestures to interact with them anyway.

"B-hind (consonant with English. Behind - behind) offers a unique solution in the field of the Internet of Things (IoT) - the integration of sphincter muscles into everyday life," the technology description says. based on voice and gestures, providing digital control based on the muscles inside the body."

The first (and so far only) device of its kind, the B-hind, designed by designer Dani Ploeger, is based on the Anuform anal electrode, used to "stimulate the anal sphincter and pelvic floor muscles to strengthen them. The designer has studied muscle contractions and translated them into commands for a robot.
