Should be fine, laptop silicon dice are typically 300-400um thick, while the "active" region (which contains the actual transistors and wiring) of the silicon is maybe 30-40um in thickness. As long as the damage doesn't go deep, it has no impact on the functionality, provided of course that...
And what exactly did he say? Arrow Lake's Lion Cove will have more L2 Cache than Lunar Lakes's (3MB instead of 2.5), that just about covers the extent of the "differentiation" between them...
According to Fritz's estimate the CCD's for Zen4 and Zen5 are ~ basically the same size (which fits to my rendered package shot eyeball). Looks like improved L3 Layout Density & Topology (Ladder Cache for the Win?) is doing the heavy lifting to compensate for the Core Area increase on the Die...
I tried a quick Paint eyeball based on the package render AMD published (IOD size fits to what is known from Zen 4 -> 122.2mm², so it can't be totally off), and the CCD Size was quite close to Zen 4, the increase is in the low single digit mm² range, but certainly less than 5mm² added (I...
If you want something actually "substantial" out of him, you can go look at at his anime tiddie and deleted poasting twitter feed...

Or just subtract 20-30% from everything he says, then you are in the right ballpark.

According to recently posted AGESA changelogs there is something called "PHX2 AM5". I thought Phoenix2 is the one with the 2xZen 4 + 4xZen 4c CCX Setup? Any idea if/what APUs will come to the Desktop?
(Excuse the off topic post...)
The IHS is not thick, its the same as Broadwell-E or Skylake-X (images for reference: IHS, PCB), meaning there is an additional substrate layer on top of the layer that actually contacts the socket. This is done to allow lowering the bump pitch/increase the bump density of the Die (for higher...
Hello Stilt, can you share some information about the current and load-line specification for the AM4 socket infrastructure? This information would be useful for evaluating motherboard VRM's.
I've been using a 4 GHz Ivy for four years now, so Zen can only ever be a sidegrade at best in terms of singlethread performance, assuming it can even clock that high. The same applies to most of the "enthusiast" types in forums like this one who would be the target customer for such a CPU. If...
The expectations in this thread are completely out of control. I guess that is an easy way to justify the coming butthurt on launch day. Zen won't even touch Intel in top-end singlethread performance. If the thought of an octa-core with IvyBridge-E performance and somewhat better efficiency is...
