    Concerns were shown by advocates and other critics for Windows 10's privacy policies and its collection and use of customer data. [44] Under the default "Express" settings, Windows 10 is configured to send various information to Microsoft and other parties, including the collection of user contacts, calendar data, computer's appearance including color of the chassis and "associated input data ...

  4. Computer performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

    In computing, computer performance is the amount of useful work accomplished by a computer system. Outside of specific contexts, computer performance is estimated in terms of accuracy, efficiency and speed of executing computer program instructions. When it comes to high computer performance, one or more of the following factors might be involved:

  5. Bulldozer (microarchitecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulldozer_(microarchitecture)

    According to AMD, Bulldozer-based CPUs are based on GlobalFoundries' 32 nm Silicon on insulator (SOI) process technology and reuses the approach of DEC for multitasking computer performance with the arguments that it, according to press notes, "balances dedicated and shared computer resources to provide a highly compact, high units count design that is easily replicated on a chip for ...

  6. Processor power dissipation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processor_power_dissipation

    When the CPU uses power management features to reduce energy use, other components, such as the motherboard and chipset, take up a larger proportion of the computer's energy. In applications where the computer is often heavily loaded, such as scientific computing, performance per watt (how much computing the CPU does per unit of energy) becomes ...

    Every degree set higher than the recommended range can save you about 5% on cooling costs. Customers can also request a meter check and obtain a new “smart meter” if one is not already in place.

  9. Overclocking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overclocking

    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.
