That's not how it works at all. Apple has nothing similar to V-cache.

  > That's not how it works at all. What isn’t how what works? Use your words. (People literally are in such a race to pick a fight and defend their best friend AMD they forgot to make the rest of the post lol. Simply say the most mild thing and AMD people trip over themselves to do this stuff constantly, it’s funny.) Do you think OP is referring to something other than fury x/Vega when they said “gpu shipped to consumers”? That’s the only thing that comes to mind, literally there are only less than a half dozen consumer gpus from AMD in the stacking era so I don’t know what else it would be. If you mean true memory in the die, not stacked, not just a cache - AMD has never shipped that to consumers (or professionals) in a gpu. Nobody puts memory in the gpu because it would be a waste of die space. But like, gotta defend AMD, better hammer that downboat and drop a pithy six-word/single-sentence reply. Social media is constantly seething with the AMD defense force looking for fights, gets super old. Like, it was literally less than 30 seconds from clicking post on my comment to seeing your debate determinating cliche. What fine discourse we have here.

  > Apple has nothing similar to V-cache. Thanks for the second sentence. AMD’s consumer gpus don’t use v-cache. Apple is using the same memory-on-package technique that fury x and Vega use. Rdna3 cache is not v-cache, just another flavor of mcm.

    No, HBM on silicon interposer is not the same as LPDDR on an organic package. One's an order of magnitude faster than the other.
