At the very least AMD doesn't tend to selectively fuse off functions in their CPUs for marketing reasons.
- jsheard 10y agoAMD are in no position to fuse off functions in their CPUs - they're barely relevant even with all the functionality enabled. If you look to the GPU market where AMD is in better shape, they do fuse off features like FP64 and ECC unless you pay for the heavily marked up FirePro versions.
- dnautics 10y agoI presume when they are fusing off these functions, they are also skipping QC on them, so they effectively have higher batch yields on that silicon.
