- ein0p 2y agoCPUs were already pretty good 7 years ago though. I still run some of them.
- verdverm 2y agoIf we follow Moore's Law, that is 3.5 doublings, wish is a little more than 11x difference. Means you need at least 10x the amount of hardware to get the same amount of work done
- ein0p 2y agoThat doesn’t seem to hold actually. My NAS/VM host runs 14nm Skylake and I see zero reason to upgrade. I don’t care that the die size is larger - I’m never going to see it. Power consumption is also pretty reasonable.
- justinclift 2y ago> If we follow Moore's Law ... At least cpu's haven't been adhering to Moore's Law for a few years now.
- DeathArrow 2y agoTell that to Intel.
