Sure, but if you look at the raw transistor count of a series of similarly sized dies (take Apple's A series for example), it holds up. It only doesn't hold up

Sure, but if you look at the raw transistor count of a series of similarly sized dies (take Apple's A series for example), it holds up. It only doesn't hold up if you look at Intel the last 5 years. If you look at series' made on TSMC or Samsung, it holds up.
- smolder 5y agoIf you look at CPU performance relative to density as it has progressed over the last few decades, there's a clear decline in speed improvement. Denser only means faster to a point, regardless of Intel's process update failures.
- WoodenChair 5y agoNot sure what you’re replying to. The statement I’m replying to didn’t say anything about performance. It said “ Transistor density isn’t doubling.”
- smolder 5y agoI have always looked at Moore's "law" as a proxy for performance, so I felt it was relevant, if tangential.
