  2. Wait state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait_state

    Even memory, the fastest of these, cannot supply data as fast as the CPU could process it. In an example from 2011, typical PC processors like the Intel Core 2 and the AMD Athlon 64 X2 run with a clock of several GHz , which means that one clock cycle is less than 1 nanosecond (typically about 0.3 ns to 0.5 ns on modern desktop CPUs), while ...

  3. CPU-bound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU-bound

    Finally, tasks required of modern computers often emphasize quite different components, so that resolving a bottleneck for one task may not affect the performance of another. For these reasons, upgrading a CPU does not always have a dramatic effect. The concept of being CPU-bound is now one of many factors considered in modern computing ...

  4. Voltage spike - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_spike

    Voltage spikes, also known as surges, may be created by a rapid buildup or decay of a magnetic field, which may induce energy into the associated circuit. However voltage spikes can also have more mundane causes such as a fault in a transformer or higher-voltage (primary circuit) power wires falling onto lower-voltage (secondary circuit) power ...

  5. Thermal design power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_design_power

    The average CPU power (ACP) is the power consumption of central processing units, especially server processors, under "average" daily usage as defined by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) for use in its line of processors based on the K10 microarchitecture (Opteron 8300 and 2300 series processors). Intel's thermal design power (TDP), used for ...

    They've scored a combined 1,100 points as we approach the 60-game mark of the season, with George playing 40 games and Embiid 19. Needless to say, that's concerning for a multitude of reasons.

  7. 2020–2023 global chip shortage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020–2023_global_chip...

    Between 2020 and 2023, there was a worldwide chip shortage affecting more than 169 industries, [1] which led to major price increases, long queues, and reselling among consumers and manufacturers for automobiles, graphics cards, video game consoles, computers, household appliances, and other consumer electronics that require integrated circuits (commonly called "chips").

  8. Hyperthermia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperthermia

    Hyperthermia, also known simply as overheating, is a condition in which an individual's body temperature is elevated beyond normal due to failed thermoregulation. The person's body produces or absorbs more heat than it dissipates.

  9. Spin (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_(physics)

    [2]: 385 This discrepancy was due to a relativistic effect, the difference between the electron's rotating rest frame and the nuclear rest frame; the effect is now known as Thomas precession. [7] Thomas' result convinced Pauli that electron spin was the correct interpretation of his two-valued degree of freedom, while he continued to insist ...
