  2. ProcDump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ProcDump

    ProcDump is a command-line application used for monitoring an application for CPU spikes and creating crash dumps during a spike. [2] [3] The crash dumps can then be used by an administrator or software developer to determine the cause of the spike.

  3. Hardware performance counter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_performance_counter

    The number of available hardware counters in a processor is limited while each CPU model might have a lot of different events that a developer might like to measure. Each counter can be programmed with the index of an event type to be monitored, like a L1 cache miss or a branch misprediction.

  4. Computer fan control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan_control

    A fan controller with LEDs indicating fan status and potentiometers and switches to control fan speeds Another method, popular with PC hardware enthusiasts, is the manual fan speed controller. They can be mounted in an expansion slot or a 5.25" or 3.5" drive bay or come built into a computer's case.

  5. Thermal design power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_design_power

    Rca (°C/W) = Thermal resistance of the Heat sink, between the case of the CPU and the ambient air. Tc = Maximum allowed temperature of the CPU's case (ensuring full performances). Ta = Maximum expected ambient temperature at the inlet of the Heat sink fan. All these parameters are linked together by the following equation:

  6. Cache replacement policies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_replacement_policies

    If block A1 is accessed at time 1, its recency will be 0; this is the first-accessed block and the IRR will be 1, since it predicts that A1 will be accessed again in time 3. In time 2, since A4 is accessed, the recency will become 0 for A4 and 1 for A1; A4 is the most recently accessed object, and the IRR will become 4.

  7. Computer fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan

    [citation needed] Most of the time memory modules, located close to CPU will receive enough of the air flow from the case or CPU fan, even if the air from CPU fan and radiator is warm. If the main CPU is water cooled, this small amount of airflow might be missing, and additional care about some airflow in a case or a dedicated memory cooling is ...

  8. 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 ...

  9. CPU core voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_core_voltage

    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.
