AMD's Boltzmann Initiative could make HPC development easier
AMD wants to make software development easier for high-performance computing (HPC) clusters, like those based on its FirePro S9170. At SC15 this week, AMD is showing off a set of tools called the Boltzmann Initiative that it says will help developers move CUDA-based applications to C++, and make HPC development more accessible to a wider audience.
The most important part of the Boltzmann Initiative seems to be a Heterogeneous Compute Compiler (HCC) for C++. The company says the HCC will make HPC applications easier to write because of that language's popularity. The HCC can ...

Rumor: Upcoming Core i7-6950X could have 10 cores, 20 threads
Intel's Haswell-E processors already pack as many as eight cores and 16 threads, but the next generation of the company's extreme desktop CPUs could offer more multi-threaded goodness yet. Chinese site Xfastest claims to have gotten its hands on a juicy document with the specifications of Intel's Broadwell-E desktop chips.
If that information is correct, the Broadwell-E desktop lineup may include six-core, 12-thread chips called the Core i7-6800K and i7-6850K, an eight-core, 16-thread ...

Report: Samsung readying budget 750 EVO SSD with planar NAND
Samsung may have inadvertently given the world a sneak peek at its 750 EVO SSDs. According to Tom's Hardware, a product page for these drives briefly went up on Samsung's Japanese site over the weekend. The site believes these new drives likely use planar TLC NAND, given their "EVO" branding and the absence of 3D V-NAND from the spec sheet. Those specs also seem to indicate that the 750 EVO series will be targeted at the budget end of the SSD market.
According to Tom's Hardware, the now-removed product page listed a 120GB 750 EVO, and contained a link to a 240GB version. The site captured the 120GB drive's detailed specs before the page went down. If that information is correct, the controller in these drives is ...
