MSI Afterburner is a graphics card overclocking (OC) and monitoring utility that allows users to monitor and adjust various settings of their graphics card. [2] Developed by MSI (Micro-Star International) and previously Alexey Nicolaychuk, developer of RivaTuner, it is widely used for enhancing the performance of graphics cards, especially in gaming and high-performance tasks.
The dynamic power (switching power) dissipated by a chip is C·V 2 ·A·f, where C is the capacitance being switched per clock cycle, V is voltage, A is the Activity Factor [1] indicating the average number of switching events per clock cycle by the transistors in the chip (as a unitless quantity) and f is the clock frequency.
A direct path between the source and ground then results in some short-circuit power loss (). The magnitude of this power is dependent on the logic gate, and is rather complex to model on a macro level. Power consumption due to leakage power emanates at a micro-level in transistors. Small amounts of currents are always flowing between the ...
The purpose of overclocking is to increase the operating speed of a given component. [3] Normally, on modern systems, the target of overclocking is increasing the performance of a major chip or subsystem, such as the main processor or graphics controller, but other components, such as system memory or system buses (generally on the motherboard), are commonly involved.
RivaTuner is a freeware overclocking and hardware monitoring program that was first developed by Alexey Nicolaychuk in 1997 [1] for the Nvidia video cards.It was a pioneering application that influenced (and in some cases was integrated into) the design of subsequent freeware graphics card overclocking and monitoring utilities.
An Intel November 2008 white paper [10] discusses "Turbo Boost" technology as a new feature incorporated into Nehalem-based processors released in the same month. [11]A similar feature called Intel Dynamic Acceleration (IDA) was first available with Core 2 Duo, which was based on the Santa Rosa platform and was released on May 10, 2007.
The Santa Clara, California-based company's shares fell more than 4% in early trading. The U.S. government also said earlier in the day it would further restrict AI chip and technology exports ...
The CPU core voltage (V CORE) is the power supply voltage supplied to the processing cores of CPU (which is a digital circuit), GPU, or any other device with a processing core. The amount of power a CPU uses, and thus the amount of heat it dissipates, is the product of this voltage and the current it draws.
