Welcome to the Highly Technical Forum! This is a place to discuss the latest issues and technology in the fields of computer architecture and engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, and other sciences. It is meant as a forum where people who are serious about technology can share ideas and thoughts without concern for product and brand loyalties. We welcome a wide range of technical topics, from "How does a CPU work?" to "Which cache mapping policy offers the best trade-off in terms of hit ratio and access time?"
Questions regarding troubleshooting, technical support, and product advice belong in other appropriate forums such as General Hardware, Networking, Video, etc. They have more traffic and, they are visited by knowledgable, enthusiastic members eager to share good advice and help troubleshoot problems.
Flame wars and personal attacks are strictly forbidden, and off-topic posts are likely to be moved or locked.
Have fun, as you use this forum as a place to learn, teach, and discuss these topics (but don't rely on it to do your homework ).
