The currency is minted using a process referred to as mining, which involves complex mathematical equations and specialized computer hardware. The ten-minute process results in 25 coins. The prediction is by 2140 there will be 21 million Bitcoins in the world. The notion for this type of currency is money ...

You're stuck with the speed you get out of the box. The i7-8809G can be overclocked. Many people avoid overclocking because it can, if you're not careful, harm the computer's hardware. If you are careful, or like to tinker, it also allows for much improved speeds at the cost of power and thermal efficiency.

Throughout the evolution of computer hardware, there have been countless successes and equally numerous failures. Gaming keyboards, a seemingly small chapter in the grand scheme, are no exception. The one sitting in front of you is likely the culmination of countless experiments, prototypes, cheers, ...

I cannot recall a time when there was more change going on in the technology sector. The latest massive Microsoft reorganization is a case in point. While Windows is dropping from the central platform for Microsoft—a move that was expected when Satya Nadella took over leadership from Steve ...

The ASICs used to mine Bitcoin are thousands of times more efficient than other kinds of computer hardware. Without access to specialized equipment Bitcoin mining is unprofitable. Meanwhile, Bitmain can charge outlandish prices for its lucrative mining hardware. Hardware specialization is undesirable ...

Over the past few years, Nvidia has made inroads into equipping cars with the computer hardware that gives them self-driving capability. That move has become so crucial that Nvidia NVDA, +4.63% shares fell more than 6% in recent trading as the company kicked off its GPU Technology Conference in San ...

Echols said he especially enjoyed spending time on classroom projects that included building wireless network designs and learning how operating systems interacted with computer hardware. Echols' love for information technology and his interest in law enforcement — fostered by his father, Paul Echols, ...

NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) has been one of the market's best performers over the past five years, with the share price climbing roughly 1,850% over that stretch. That's an incredible trajectory spurred by increasing demand for its computer hardware, resulting from trends ranging from gaming-industry growth ...

Crystal Group will showcase its latest servers, embedded computers, and switches deployed by the US Army to refresh/add new technology on high profile programs such as IBCS, EMARSS, THAAD, MDAR, C-RAM, NGATS, and Prophet Enhanced System. "Crystal Group's rugged computer hardware is ...

"We've been working with Logic Supply for the last few years on a range of projects that require highly reliable computer hardware," said Kevin Romano, Executive Vice President and founder, Christie Experiential Network. "In our industry, reliability is paramount. Every moment of downtime potentially ...

“There is high competition in computer hardware production. Developers want to make faster chips, so they have to add aggressive speculative execution. They are giving up on security checks in order to make it fast.” On the bright side, there are no known incidents of Spectre-type attacks, but Evtyushkin ...

Computers are digital equipment for everyday use in homes and for performing day to day activities in offices. These include personal computers (PCs) laptops and tablets. The computers market also comprises computer storage devices, peripheral equipment, system design services and other related ...

Now a group of Israeli researchers is outlining a new set of chip-focused vulnerabilities that, if confirmed, would represent another collection of flaws at the core of computer hardware, this time in a processor architecture designed by AMD. But the researchers now also face their own questions: about the ...

The Insight Computer Architecture Lab deals with the often knotty trade-offs that arise when striving to design computer hardware that will deliver optimum performance. You sometimes increase one quality at the expense of another. For example, latency refers to how long it takes to move data from point A ...

Using old dusty hardware being sold on eBay, hardware hackers can transform them into modern devices that perform tasks that they were never intended. Such is the case when hardware hacker Trammel Hudson discovered some Motorola MDT-9100T Mobile Data Terminals being sold on eBay that ...
