Are these cores getting way more complex? Because there should be room for 2x - 3x as many cores with die shrinks at this point.

- astrange 1y agoIf you get more space, you need a really good reason not to use that space on more cache. Also, the size numbers are lies and aren't the actual size of anything.
- zamadatix 1y agoThe die shrinks are less than the marketing numbers would make you believe, but the cores are getting significantly more complex. I think E cores had a 50% cache increase this generation, as an example. The above summary also excludes the GPU, which seems to have gotten the most attention this generation (~+30%, even more in AI workloads).
