Apple A9X the new mobile SoC king

As Futuremark pointed out, the limitation on A7 was due to its memory structure and OoO execution (under section How fast is the A7 chip? It depends.). Since A7/A8/A9 are from the the same uArch design, Apple may improved the shortfall on their design, but more or less the limitation will still...

Apple A9X the new mobile SoC king

You are too late into this debate. I remembered when A7 was released almost everyone on the Apple camp cried fault on 3DMark 11 physics test for been "not meeting Apple's claim of performance increase therefore something must be fishy". You have to understand this Physics benchmark is a CPU...

Samsung Nintendo AMD semicustom ARM-x86 Showdown Scenario

Sure. Something called "Reverse Hyperthreading". It was such a craze in the fans community during the time (in hope to surpass the performance crown of Core 2 Duo), but nonetheless it is not technically possible. Arstechnica did a brief article about it and refused to go deeper for obvious...

[AppleInsider] Apple may abandon Intel for its Macs starting with post-Broadwell

The problem here: Ax series has to be significantly better in terms of absolute performance in a iMac system comparing to what Intel offers at the same era, and that has to be done not just in terms of geekbench, which leans its tests on mobile related tasks as far as I understand it.

[AppleInsider] Apple may abandon Intel for its Macs starting with post-Broadwell

I believe you got it backward in terms of Performance per watt. In general, one has to aim for higher Performance per watt instead of lower. Apple switched to Intel in 2006 not just because Intel had higher performance per watt, but also in term of absolute performance as well. Performance per...

New to SKYRIM

Prior to patch 1.9, with every skill leveled to 100 you would reach the maximum character level of 81 and that's it. After the 1.9 patch, you can mark a level 100 skill as "Legend", which basically resets it to its original level (15) and refund your perks for that skill then you can level...

Skyrim (main quest) ending *spoilers*

To be fair Fallout: NV's endings are much more complex depends on your char's allegiance, reputation and the relationship/interactions with other NPCs. Heck, even its' DLCs have mini-endings as well. Be it NCR, Caeser's Legion, Mr. House, or Yes Man, a lot of NPCs' fate are on your hand. I...

Apple A8 Benchmarked

What? you are the one claiming the "4GB" file size limit issue on Android is also existed on XP + FAT32 (which is correct), and the problem "disappeared" when switched to 64 bit (which I don't believe is true. You can have a 64 bit Windows and convert your file system to FAT32, and 4GB limit...

Apple A8 Benchmarked

You don't need a 64bit machine to solve the FAT32 4GB file limit on XP. All you need is NTFS format, and the 4GB file limit goes away

The Intel Atom Thread

I hate to bust your BayTrail-5hr-playback-time bubble because apparently some foreign sites had already done their sharing of test on T100 as well. Here is one link in Chinese: http://pad.pconline.com.cn/359/3596882_all.html#content_page_1 under the battery test section, the author specified...
