The relationship between RAM and CPU is often misunderstood. Your CPU can only work as fast as it can get data from the memory. When you speed up memory, whether by enabling XMP or making manual ...

A research team, led by the University of Cambridge, has developed a novel computer memory design, which promises to significantly improve performance while reducing the energy demands of internet and ...

Here's why your computer keeps freezing and how you can fix it without replacing the RAM When your computer slows to a crawl and struggles with even basic tasks, like switching between apps, it’s ...

Researchers have developed a new type of memory cell that can both store information and do high-speed, high-efficiency calculations. The memory cell enables users to run high-speed computations ...

Power management has received increasing focus in microelectronic systems as the need for greater power density, efficiency and precision have grown apace. One of the important ongoing trends in ...

Within just a few decades, the surging volume of digital data will constitute one of the world’s largest energy consumers.

Of all the PC-related things to come out of CES this year, my favorite wasn't Nvidia's graphics cards or AMD's newest Ryzens or Intel's iterative processor refreshes or any one of the oddball PC ...

With transistors and logic gates as our basic building blocks, we can begin to construct the actual circuits that make up computer memory. One of the simplest memory circuits is the AND gate, which ...

Misconfiguration in the Dell Support Assist Manager can also cause this issue. If Dell Data Manager shows high CPU, Memory, Disk, or Power usage in the Task Manager of your Windows computer, follow ...
