On regular Ryzen 8c CCD the L2+L3 take up more than half the die area and if you add the infinity fabric then pure cores are occupying only 1/3 of die!Maybe microsoft can make a windows lite. Not for mobile devices but for people who don't want one drive or co-pilot or edge and all the other years of accumulated bloat, and just want to game. Maybe there'd be like a 10% performance gain. But I bet that wouldn't fit their 'vision'
Seriously I feel like the last thing I need is more threads. Actually idk I could go without ai accelerators too. Can't we put some more cache there or something? I've seen pictures, they take up a lot of realestate.
Yes cache does occupy a lot of space
But as you are getting larger dies, fab yields (%) are tumbling downwards and cost upwards fast
