It is generally believed that the use of solar cells to generate electricity makes sense mainly in regions with a large number of sunny days, but the year before last in Yakutia, the largest solar power plant began to operate among all located beyond the Arctic Circle, and this fact itself is capable of breaking stereotypes .  In the framework of the Project Sunroof initiative, Google not only compiled a map of potentially successful locations for the use of solar power plants in the United States, but also analyzed the roof types of over 60 million buildings in various states to assess the possibility of placing solar cells on them to generate electricity for Household needs.   A special calculator on the project site allows you to preliminarily evaluate how profitable it is to install solar cells on the roofs of houses in a specific locality.  To assess the potential, not only data on the orientation and types of roofs of buildings in populated areas and their shade were used, but also information on the solar activity in the area.  The American cities with the highest potential of "solar electrification" are allocated.  The top five included Houston, Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Antonio and New York. According to the authors of the study, more than 90% of homes in the states of Hawaii, Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico justify the installation of solar cells on the roofs.  In less successful states such as Pennsylvania, Maine or Minnesota, more than 60% of homes are suitable for installing solar cells.  Now local residents have a convenient tool for deciding on the transition to alternative sources of electricity.

Today we have already seen what the master of extreme overclocking can achieve with the help of a specially prepared GeForce GTX 1080 Ti cooled with liquid nitrogen.   So Ilya Tsemenko, who is known to our readers under the pseudonym TiN , posted a detailed illustrated manual on the modification of the power system of the reference version GeForce GTX 1080 Ti on profile pages.  Corresponding changes allow to raise the frequency of the video card, but the author of the technique immediately warns that it makes sense only to those who use liquid nitrogen, dry ice or a phase transition system to cool the graphics card during overclocking.  With air coolers or water blocks, such measures will be superfluous - it will not be possible to achieve a speed increase in this case, the work on reworking the video card will be in vain. Naturally, enthusiasts who have decided to repeat this experiment will do their own thing at their own peril and risk, and no one else is responsible for the possible consequences of such a transformation.   Select Rating : Currently 10.00/10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 48009 Rating: 10.0/10 (3 votes cast) GeForce GTX 1080 Ti voltage mode	Add Comment ( 1 ) GEFORCE GTX 1080 TI VOLTAGE MODE

POSTER: computer news   ||    AMD ACTIVELY WORKS ON CRITICAL REMARKS ABOUT PROCESSORS RYZEN 7	DATE:2017-03-14
AMD has already promised, with the active support of game developers, to optimize the latter to improve performance with the latest Ryzen 7 processors, and a new publication on the corporate blog pages continues to demonstrate the openness of Zen architecture processors developer   for criticism and the readiness to improve products and related software. To begin with, AMD questions the allegations of incorrect operation of Windows 10 in multi-threaded mode when using Ryzen 7 processors. The reports that this operating system is "confused in threads" and reduces performance in comparison with Windows 7, it considers untenable.  All the fault, in addition to the completely acceptable differences at the level of operating systems, is the use of  outdated version  Coreinfo utility, with the help of which they tried to collect "evidence base".  If you run version 3.31 of this utility on a system based on Ryzen 7 running Windows 10, then no serious deviations will be detected. AMD also calls for the correct interpretation of the readings of the temperature sensor of the Ryzen 7 processors. The fact is that in the models with the "X" in the title (Ryzen 7 1700X and Ryzen 7 1800X), a built-in temperature sensor initially contains a delta of 20 degrees Celsius, Control the operation of the fan of a regular cooler, which these models of processors in a number of complete sets are equipped with.  The younger Ryzen 7 processor 1700 has no such "temperature markup". Finally, the impact of the Windows energy profile on the speed of  Ryzen 7 processors is recognized by AMD as a significant factor.  It really recommends switching to High Performance mode, since in this case the effect of energy-saving functions, which tend to offload the processor cores, is leveled out.  In the profile of Balanced, this effect can be traced clearly, but soon the Windows update will come out, which will smooth out the negative effect.  We just need to wait until the beginning of April. AMD believes that the activation of multi-threaded processors Ryzen 7 does not cause a decrease in performance in games.  It either remains at the same level, or increases.  Nevertheless, work on this problem is being carried out, and soon it will be possible to talk about the positive impact of SMT in more cases.

POSTER: computer news   ||    INTEL FORKS TO BUY A DEVELOPER OF CAMERAS AND PROCESSORS FOR AUTOPILOT	DATE:2017-03-14
This week, it was reported in joint statement , Intel will buy Mobileye assets for $ 15.3 billion by the end of this year. As explained by the Israeli side, the deal will not affect the relationship with existing customers and Mobileye partners  .  Is that the logo of the company's logo will change slightly, but the name Mobileye for itself will retain.  Moreover,  Intel development team from the "automobile direction" will enter the structure of Mobileye, and will be based in Israel.  With the support of Intel company staff will be expanded, but there are no plans for rearrangements in the Mobileye manual.  There will be a representation in the US, which is in line with the interests of the buyer in the person of Intel. Mobileye is not going to turn off the planned route.  In fact, it receives from Intel financial and engineering support, while retaining the opportunity to develop at a faster pace.  Intel, by this deal, emphasizes the seriousness of its intentions to invest in the market of automotive electronics management: its capacity by 2030, according to company estimates, will be measured at $ 70 billion.
