The AVX-512 instruction set has had a bizarre history. Originally introduced with Intel's Xeon Phi processors based on the "Knights Landing" design, it later found its way into the company's server ...

Yesterday, developer of PS3 emulator RPCS3 Whatcookie posted a 20-minute YouTube video to their YouTube channel in defense of AVX-512, a maligned CPU instruction set that debuted with Intel's ...

A new blog post published on Thursday covers the experimental support for SIMD with the Go programming language. This ...

Intel has finally defended its AVX-512 instruction set against critics who have gone so far as to wish it to die “a painful death.” Intel Chief Architect Raja Koduri said the community loves it ...

In context: Advanced vector extensions are a type of "single instruction, multiple data" extension to the x86 instruction set architecture, implemented by Intel and AMD in modern CPUs. These ...

Intel’s Nova Lake could finally make AVX-512 useful on consumer chips by giving P-cores and E-cores matching support. Hot Hardware reports that the groundwork appeared in November, when Intel released ...

Intel has clarified a misreported item on its own CPUs. Lower end Skylake-X CPUs have more AVX-512 performance available than we were told. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens ...

For the majority of workloads, fiddling with assembly instructions isn’t worth it. The added complexity and code obfuscation generally outweigh the relatively modest gains. Mainly because compilers ...

When Intel switched to a hybrid architecture with its 12th-Gen Alder Lake PUs, it removed AVX-512 support from the lineup entirely because the E-cores didn't support ...

It looks like 512-bit AVX instructions are set to make a comeback on Intel's consumer desktop CPUs. The first concrete evidence has appeared in the latest release of Intel's oneDNN library, which adds ...

After recently proposing x86S 64-bit only CPUs, Intel today introduces AVX10 which brings AVX-512 to its E-cores as well. The company is also debuting a new APX ISA that doubles GPRs. It looks like ...

The Alder Lake/AVX-512 saga is finally coming to an end. As per an Intel representative, future batches of Intel Alder Lake chips won't physically support the AVX-512 instruction set, as the chip ...
