Earlier right now, Intel launched its newest Thunderbolt customary with Thunderbolt 5. The brand new {hardware} interface brings a lot quicker speeds of as much as 120Gbps which is 3 times quicker in comparison with earlier gens, although there’s a catch in fact because it solely works with the “Bandwidth Increase” function. And whereas, the brand new Thunderbolt 5 can present as much as 64Gbps of PCIe bandwidth because it”s constructed on PCIe Gen4, the PCI-SIG already long-announced PCIe 6.0 specs can theoretically improve the bandwidth 4 instances that of Gen4 because it has a switch charge of 64GT/s unidirectionally.
Standard {hardware} monitoring instrument AIDA64 is maintaining properly with the modifications as the newest model of the software program has obtained assist for PCIe 6.0 controllers and gadgets though PCIe 6.0 graphics playing cards or NVMe SSDs are nonetheless not round, and it’ll possible be some time for that too.
Other than PCIe Gen6 assist, the brand new model has additionally obtained assist for Zen 5 or Ryzen 8000 sequence which is touchdown subsequent 12 months in 2024. The discharge notes present “improved” assist although it’s unclear what this implies.
There are AVX-512-related enhancements as nicely, together with assist for the brand new AMD RX 7800 XT, 7700 XT, and likewise the RX 7900 GRE and Nvidia 4060 Ti 16GB variant. The total changelog for AIDA64 6.92.6600 is given beneath:
- AVX-512 accelerated benchmarks for Intel Sapphire Rapids and Emerald Rapids processors
- Additional optimized AVX-512 Julia and Mandel benchmarks
- Improved assist for AMD Zen 5 processors
- MSI CoreLiquid AIO LCD assist
- Help for PCI Specific 6.0 controllers and gadgets
- GPU particulars for AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT, RX 7800 XT, RX 7900 GRE
- FMAC strategies for FLOPS and IOPS GPGPU benchmarks
- GPU particulars for Intel Xe and Xe Max
- Help for a number of Intel GPUs
- GPU particulars for nVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB
- CSV and XML report codecs at the moment are supported by AIDA64 Engineer
You’ll be able to obtain it from Neowin or from the official web site.
