Yeah, but don't forget that creating systems with massive core count is much more than just scaling up. It is a whole different science and art. Just handling

Yeah, but don't forget that creating systems with massive core count is much more than just scaling up. It is a whole different science and art. Just handling the heat generated by 280W requires teams of hundreds of engineers. And IPC for 8 cores is child play compared to IPC for 64 cores. You can already see this with M1: the 10W M1 reaches 7.5K while the 18W (15?) M1 is IIRC around 8.7K on cinebench
