    Are Userbenchmark's individual scores useful?

    Posted: 21 Nov 2019 11:59 PM PST

    I'm not asking about their high-level "Effective Speed" metric. I'm asking whether their 1-core, 2-core, 4-core, 8-core, and 64-core metrics are reasonably representative metrics. I mainly look at those as well as the "Productivity" and "Workstation" scores to get a sense for what would be useful for me (as a software engineer) but I'd to know whether those more specific metrics are worthwhile.

    PCIE4 to PCIE3 bifurcation/expansion options

    Posted: 21 Nov 2019 01:03 PM PST

    Are any potential solutions for adapting PCIE4 slots to PCIE3 with double the lanes? The X570 platform has plenty of bandwidth for huge expansion card potential, but the way PCIE lane distribution works it's hard to take advantage of it without "wasting" lanes and severely limiting I/O possibilities.

    For example, many X570 boards have PCIE4x2 slots that could take 10Gbe NICs, but with existing market options they have to be slotted into more precious, larger lane slots. Given current I/O flavors targeting 10Gbps or 5Gbps (USB3, 10Gbe) and the fact that many traditionally useful peripherals don't need more than 10GBps anyway (capture cards, SATA HBAs, etc.), it's easy to wind up in situations where you have the overall bandwidth but not the lanes due to allocation inefficiency.

    Is there any history of addressing this during prior PCIE generational upgrades, or do manufacturers avoid it to drive people to HEDT? Is the answer just hoping for eventual versions of existing tech to be released in PCIE4 variants with halved lane requirements, which may or may not happen at all but in any case is unlikely until consumer Intel platforms move to PCIE4?

    Are there any examples of using supercapacitors as a long-term or semi-long-term backup power source in computing equipment? What is the benefit over batteries?

    Posted: 21 Nov 2019 02:48 PM PST

    I have read about supercapacitors being used in enterprise RAM to flush the DRAM modules to a nonvolatile storage medium in the event of a power loss, as well as supercapacitors for RAID cards and SSDs to, again, ensure all data is written to nonvolatile memory.

    However, are there currently any examples of supercapacitors being used for low-power but more long-term backup, like maintaining a real-time clock or keeping a secure enclave with encryption keys on RAM powered and able to wipe the keys in the event of a hardware breach?

    Are there any benefits to using supercaps in computing compared to batteries? Are they more reliable or easier to deal with by sysadmins?

    The english translation:

    At the briefing session, a 7-inch gaming UMPC "ONE-GX" scheduled to be launched in the first half of 2020 was also announced. Since shooting of slides and mockups is prohibited, the explanation is based on text, but in brief, it has the following features.

    The form is exactly like Dell's " Alienware Area-51m ", and this is an impression that it is tightly packed into a 7-inch. The main body color is red.2in1 mechanism of 360 degree rotation is abolished and a pure clam shell shape is adopted.The rear edge shines similarly to Area-51m, and the keyboard also has RGB LED backlight.Tiger Lake Y for the first time in the world Adopt processor. Second generation 10nm process technology and new GPU in performance improvement , keyboard type not isolation adopted a dual fan of Japanese-made improve the heat dissipation properties similar to the · Nintendo Switch, equipped with a detachable controller of the left and right controller Since it operates as a non-Bluetooth 1P / 2P controller with 2.4 GHz connection, game play is possible for 2 people. Weight is scheduled to be 600 g or less
