I was under the impression that having it all as an SoC was a significant benefit by cutting down latency between components.

I was under the impression that having it all as an SoC was a significant benefit by cutting down latency between components.
- wmf 4y agoIntel, AMD, and Qualcomm have been shipping SoCs for years.
- seabrookmx 4y agoThey don't have the RAM on package though.
- wmf 4y agoThis doesn't matter. I know no one will believe me, but there's no benchmark that can show the difference.
- wffurr 4y agoIsn't the packaging part of what makes the very wide memory controllers feasible?
- wmf 4y agoNot really. GPUs regularly implement 256-bit or wider RAM.
- erichocean 4y agoWith insanely high latency relative to a CPU…
- wffurr 4y agoDon't GPUs also typically have the RAM soldered on you the card, effectively "on package"?
- wmf 4y agoThat's my point; Apple's RAM soldered on package is the same as PC laptops with RAM soldered on the motherboard. Apple has no advantage from that.
