They would have to build a whole new IO die to support the bandwidth requirements of the CPU + GPU.Perhaps this is one of the reasons for the odd design choices made with this card:
AMD might be combining the Navi 24 chip, on which the 6500XT is based, with a "Core Complex Die" and an "IO Die" in order to build a chiplet-based APU. Who knows..
Oh it will be painful for them when the crypto market dumps millions of cards for cheap in the 2nd hand market. Nvidia's consumer division is especially going to suffer since they don't have iGPU/console market to fall back on. AMD RTG atleast knows that if PlayStation 6 and whatever the next Xbox is called happens, they are going to get the contract to design the chip using RDNA 4/5/whatever.The situation is only getting worse, and it will bite them back. You know the universal law - what goes around, comes around. It will bite them back in their backsides.. Hopefully, it will be painful for them, as is painful for us now..
