I filled both M.2 slots with 500GB Gen4 NVMe drives and set them up as an SSD cache because the spec sheet said that's what ...

On September 28, Claude Sonnet 5.5 was released. The price is the same as Sonnet 5, at $2 for input and $10 for output (per 1 million tokens). Despite this, its performance in terminal task testing ...

The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D set new benchmarks in gaming performance with its impressive 96 MB L3 V-Cache. But how does memory latency factor into this powerhouse's performance? Our latest analysis dives ...

Astera Labs has added three products to its Leo memory controller line, aimed at a problem that arises as AI inference shifts from single queries to agents that run continuous loops: the key-value ...

A photo taken on September 1, 2025 shows the Deepseek AI logo on a laptop screen (R) next to the logo of the Deepseek AI application on a smartphone screen in Frankfurt am Main, western Germany.

An ambitious chip startup that has spent more than seven years quietly trying to redesign the architecture for computer memory has just come out of stealth mode and believes its new approach can help ...

Scientists have devised a new way to switch magnetic computer memory while using far less energy than today's leading technologies. By mathematically optimizing the pulses used to flip digital bits, ...

Clearing cached data has become a catch-all troubleshooting tip people recommend whenever a phone, computer or streaming device feels slow. While this can help sometimes, cached data isn't inherently ...

Intel tests presented at the OCP APAC Summit 2026 that moving the key-value cache used in large language model (LLM) inference from GPU memory to system DRAM can raise serving throughput and support ...

The conversation surrounding AI infrastructure has correctly identified the key value (KV) cache as a critical bottleneck in scaling AI inference. As models push toward longer context windows and ...

The memory wall is no longer a theoretical concern. It’s the defining bottleneck in today’s AI, automotive, and data center system-on-chips (SoCs). CPUs operate at GHz frequencies with single-digit ...

The current high prices of computer memory, such as these Crucial DDR4 memory sticks made by Micron, are at the heart of a lawsuit against the world’s largest RAM manufacturers. Those price increases ...
