Hello all, I have a question regarding CPU instruction sets. I have heard that the aging x86 instruction set is holding back progress, so to speak. So I was thinking about what would make a better ...

Now Loongson is trying something new: rather than adopt RISC-V, ARM, or x86 architecture, the company has developed its own ISA (instruction set architecture) called LoongArch. HKEPC ...

China-based CPU designer Loongson Zongke Technology has pledged to build a homegrown CPU instruction ecosystem independent of Wintel and Android-ARM, and all its products will switch to the self ...

Using a processor description language improves the efficiency of modifying and optimizing instruction sets. February 25th, 2021 - By: Roddy Urquhart In a previous post , we considered how you could ...

APX will also expand the conditional instruction set of the x86 ISA, which was first introduced with the Pentium Pro processor with the CMOV/SET instructions.

Doing this removes any possibility of CPU manipulation. Easy to use, stable and reliable automatic overclocking tools are actually a good thing, but only if the user is aware of the changes being ...

A job listing posted to Apple's website this week reveals the company is researching RISC-V instruction set architecture solutions, suggesting future in-house chip designs might implement the open ...

I designed the HP-1000 A600. It used 4 AMD 2901B, AMD 2904, AMD 2910 and registered PROMs for microstore. Because of the 2901’s capabilities, there was never a bug in the HP-1000 instruction set.

However, Microsoft is seemingly bringing changes to CPU instruction set architecture (ISA) support that could define how successful the attempts to run Windows 11 24H2 on very old systems will be.
