If your aim is to build a desktop system with low idle power consumption, an Intel NUC is a good choice. A 10th generation Intel NUC was measured consuming 8.5W at idle here. The 10th generation Intel NUCs use 14nm Comet Lake U series CPUs. The iGPU on Comet Lake U series CPUs does not support...
If you are planning to use the integrated graphics on the i5 10400, be aware that if you are using a 4K monitor, the HDMI port on the motherboard only supports outputing 4K@30Hz. It should be fine for 1920x1080@60Hz. The motherboard also has a DVI-D port but lacks a DisplayPort, so check if the...
Whilst Rosetta does not support translating the AVX family of SIMD instructions, it does support translating the SSE family of SIMD instructions. FLAC has codepaths that make use of SSE intrinsics in addition to codepaths that make use of AVX intrinsics. The reason that the FLAC benchmark shows...
Is this also the case for the SSE familiy of SIMD instruction sets? The FLAC codebase also has code paths that make use of SIMD intrinsics for each version of the SSE instruction family. In theory SSE instuctions making use of the 128-bit XMM registers should be translatable to ARM NEON...
The x86 build of FLAC seems to make use of x86 SIMD intrinsics in addition to x86 assembly. I don't see any evidence of any use of ARM SIMD intrinsics or of ARM assembly in the FLAC codebase, so that is likely to explain the performance disparity between the native ARM build of FLAC and the x86...
Regardless of whether one thinks that the price of the Ryzen 5600X is too high, I don't think it can be taken for granted than AMD will release a Ryzen 5600 or a Ryzen 5700/5700X outside of the OEM market. Let's take a look at the history of these product numbers throughout the various Ryzen...
Compilation workloads benefit greatly from the greater L3 cache available on Matisse vs Renoir. Tom's Hardware tested the time taken to compile LLVM, a large C++ codebase in their review of the 4750G. The larger 32MB L3 cache of the 3700X allowed it to complete the compilation in 80% of the time...
Compilation workloads benefit greatly from large a L3 cache. You can see that the 3700X has a substantial advantage over the overclocked 4750G for the LLVM compilation benchmark, the 3700X completing the compilation in around 80% or the time required by the 4750G.
