Impressive memory bandwidth!
I feel like x86 offerings often fall down so flat in this area. Even when theoretical memory bandwidth is provided, there are often other significant limitations that prevent its use. I've run into this personally with AMD Zen cores, where it is pretty easy to saturate the infinite fabric bandwidth.
Do you know why they would outfit it with LPDDR5 instead of regular DDR5? I don't have a good feel for the difference here. At first blush I would assume low power DDR would run slower not faster, but that doesn't seem to be the case anywhere I see it deployed.
- Vecr 3y agoLPDDR5 has lower total latency (or can, and I assume it very much does in this case). Essentially the "standard motherboard layout" normal DDR5 is designed for is too big to target a lower latency.
