GP mentions cores and the article is about benchmarks. The relationship between transistor count, core count, and performance, is exactly on topic.

- CyberDildonics 1y agoSingle core performance and transistor count are not the same thing and have been disconnected for two decades.
- jl6 1y agoDid you think I said otherwise?
- CyberDildonics 1y agoMoore's law was about transistors and cost, you were equating it to performance. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45434910 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45434910 Your reply here is not directly related or an answer to the comment you replied to.
- jl6 1y agoYou have brought a lot of your own assumptions to that reading. OP asked if doubling or tripling core count counted as keeping up with Moore’s law. I pointed out that in the case of the M series (the topic of the thread), regardless of core count, transistor count did not double or triple.
