If you have a source I'm happy to read it but otherwise I think you're confused. Especially about Intel client and server cores having different numbers of registers. The lowest level difference between them I've heard of that wasn't features being fused off is different L3 cache sizes.
- stephencanon 5y agoYeah, all the public documents I've seen say the Sunny Cove PRF has no change from Skylake, so 180 INT registers and 168 FP.
- baybal2 5y agoI think I am confused. I do remember I heard that physical register file was around 500 registers, but I believe my memory fails me now.
