A Look At How The AMD EPYC Linux Performance
|
 "This month marks one year since AMD returned to delivering
high-performance server CPUs with the debut of their EPYC 7000 series
processor line-up. It's been a triumphant period for AMD with the
successes over the past year of their EPYC family. Over the past year,
the Linux support has continued to improve with several EPYC/Zen CPU
optimizations, ongoing Zen compiler tuning, CPU temperature monitoring
support within the k10temp driver, and general improvements to the Linux
kernel that have also helped out EPYC. In this article is a comparison
of a "2017" Linux software stack as was common last year to the
performance now possible if using the bleeding-edge software components.
These Linux benchmarks were done with the EPYC 7351P, 7401P, and 7601
processors."

LG G7 ThinQ Review: Punchy Display
|
|
LG debuted the G7 ThinQ in early May and certainly turned some heads with the promise of a 1000 nits capable display, an AI-powered camera, and its Boombox Speaker features. On the surface, if you consider some of the salient features consumers are looking for in a modern smartphone, the marketing folks at LG had their ears to the ground, so to speak.
The new LG G7 ThinQ checks many of the key feature boxes consumers look for in a handset, and it strikes a nice size balance as well, in a thin-bezel 6.1-inch form factor...
