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 ...

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 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 ...

Intel is bringing its AVX-512 instruction set to desktop CPUs with its upcoming Cannon Lake CPUs, but AVX-512 is a good deal more complex than previous SIMD sets, and its capabilities are distributed ...

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 ...

So the reviews are out, the dust has largely settled, and the conclusion of the community is that AMD's Zen 5-based Ryzen 9000 processors are more of an iterative step than a groundbreaking leap ...

Also, AVX512 is getting rebranded as AVX10. They will be a subset that keeps everything but the 512 bit vectors for E cores while P cores will get the full 512 bit vectors. Not sure how that's going ...

A brief note in the latest oneDNN update confirms that Intel plans to bring back 512-bit AVX instructions to future desktop CPUs, most likely with Nova Lake. The update adds early support for AVX10.2 ...
