Here's EPYC 7601's "IF" power (it's really all the uncore power) vs. the core power.
Going outside the chip means swinging lots of capacitance up and down, and modern interconnects swing that capacitance fast.

- kllrnohj 5y agoAnd that's only for a 2p setup. An 8p setup would need even more interconnects per CPU depending on the architecture (eg, ring, mesh, etc..), which would have further impacts to performance depending on which tradeoffs are made.
