Funnily enough Qualcomm tried to persuade RISC-V to let them drop compressed instructions. Presumably because they're trying to crowbar a RISC-V decoder onto the Nuvia design and compressed instructions are breaking it somehow.
- Joel_Mckay 2y agoThey should buy the intel alumni founded RISC-V startup, and pour resources into a RVA23 based chip with dual on-chip SDR asic sections (they have the IP). i.e. create a single open-chip solution for mid-tier mobile communication platforms. They won't do this due to their cellular chip line interests. However, even if it just ran a bare bones Linux OS... it would open up entire markets. =3
- delfinom 2y agoWith how poorly Intel is doing, not sure "Intel alumni" is a plus. Lmao.
- Joel_Mckay 2y agoIndeed, the Intel installed base has enough market inertia to last a business cycle or two with AMD. Even with the recent silicon defects... People will tolerate the garbage as they want the NVIDIA+Intel performance. Architecturally speaking, there were better options available... just never the equivalent price over performance of consumer grade hardware. =)
