Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab have designed a system where programs can have access to ad hoc optimally allocated cache memory. In a simulation test ...

A disk write-back cache does add a slight amount of risk, because the data remain in volatile memory longer. When the computer is turned off, the operating system ensures that the data written to ...

SOT-MRAM stands out for its superior power efficiency, nonvolatility, and performance compared to static RAM, making it a strong candidate to replace cache memory in computer architecture, for ...

The patent at issue was Visual Memory’s U.S. Patent No. 5,953,740, titled Computer memory system having programmable operational characteristics based on characteristics of a central processor.

It serves as a cache for all of your system’s important data, programs, and more, so that it can be accessed more quickly. Working memory is also known as RAM, but why is it there at all?

So let's see how memory scaling differs between Zen 4 and Zen 4 3D V-Cache in today's games. For all of the testing, we used a GeForce GTX 4090 at 1080p, Windows 11, and Resizable BAR was enabled.
