Special attention to health before 42 and after, I do not need to pay any attention to it?43 here. Oh you are still young, my child!
Just pay special attention to your health until you hit 42!
Media in general has declined, social media and clickbait has taken over. Ens****ification and all that. So its probably just as much the large trends, as it is specific good journalists bowing out or changing careers. People's attention spans have changed to prefer video, I never watched hardware videos 10 years ago. What annoys me even more than the formats are that people willingly choose to consume, acknowledge, and boost known dishonest actors though when there is other good content in the same format that is a bit less clickbaity.I have noticed this too- that the quality of technical discussion has declined in recent years, especially in places like r/hardware. I don't know about this forum, but I assume it's true here as well. I think a large part of the reason is that indeed, we do not have likes Anand, Andrei or Ian anymore, putting out high quality articles that even the average techie can understand.
Ah the body gets used to being old after 42. Before, it's like, die human die! Stop trying to stay alive!Special attention to health before 42 and after, I do not need to pay any attention to it?
The good news is that pretty soon you can task an AI agent to watch those video's and write an article on the content... probably with graphs and everything.Media in general has declined, social media and clickbait has taken over.

It's the same public boosting dishonest politicians by getting impressed with their lies and voting for them. Nothing surprising. When teaching isn't as good a profession as medicine and engineering, how can you trust teachers to raise a more intelligent public?What annoys me even more than the formats are that people willingly choose to consume, acknowledge, and boost known dishonest actors though when there is other good content in the same format that is a bit less clickbaity.

This. And I'll let @adroc_thurston correct me, but I believe the 5C variant on N3 will just be Turin Dense. Client and Turin are all fabbed on N4P.AFAIK, Zen5 is 4nm and Zen5C is 3 nm
You will be the first to know the moment i hold one in my dirty hands :-D
Is 35 considered being an Old Geezer?
You admit you're on a long downhill slide once you hit 42
I guess I should be dead at 70You admit you're on a long downhill slide once you hit 42
That's the problem. A car that requires you opening the trunk and working on the innards every 2-3 times you take it for a drive is a PITA.This is strange. The open source ecosystem surrounding Linux is a nearly endless source of tinkering, tuning, hacking
Knowledge is one thing, dealing with the specifics of a config file whose format is 30 years old and makes absolutely no sense to you and requires to learn a bunch of specific things from multiple 15 year old forum posts is NOT the kind of knowledge people want to have., and - most importantly - a way to "know how things work under the hood"
I've ran Arch for some time and after 6-9 months decided that the Linux Experiment was a waste of my time and went back to Windows. The Windows experience may be inferior in a lot of ways, but it requires zero input to work in a predictable and broadly functioning manner.Discovering new things and understanding how technology really works can be an exciting experience. No other PC platform can provide this.
Depends. How long do you intend on living?
Dual boot, or use the Windows Linux VM features. Best of both worlds. Mostly.I've ran Arch for some time and after 6-9 months decided that the Linux Experiment was a waste of my time and went back to Windows.

Probably within a year. Maybe 3/4. So there is a new generation every two year and a upgrade option halfway.Join Team Zombie! Age? What's that?

Back to Zen5 - how long does anyone think it will be before there's a 3D cache version of it? Will there be one?
The wild card here is that Zen5c/Turin Dense is going to be on an N3 variant. Will AMD move Zen53D over to N3 as well?Probably within a year. Maybe 3/4. So there is a new generation every two year and a upgrade option halfway.

I was sort of thinking the same thing, but keep in mind that Zen53D dice will generally be Turin-X rejects. If AMD wants to hit as hard as possible in the datacentre, moving Turin-X to an N3 variant (other than N3B, lulz) would be an extremely aggressive move that could give them a greater competitive edge. That being said, Intel poses no threat to them this coming generation, so perhaps AMD would not need N3E just yet.I doubt it. Part of the modular approach is that you re-use the modules, which means re-using the original Zen 5 die.
About a year or so. Maybe 9 months only like Z4.Back to Zen5 - how long does anyone think it will be before there's a 3D cache version of it? Will there be one?
Wut? No!The wild card here is that Zen5c/Turin Dense is going to be on an N3 variant. Will AMD move Zen53D over to N3 as well?
You just described running a Steam Deck at 540p.What if someone made a console with a severely undercooked Strix Halo APU?
Ultra-efficient gaming?
Don't think, that Halo will be king of Perf/W. The chiplet nature will have to pay an interconnect taxWhat if someone made a handheld console with a severely undercooked Strix Halo APU?

Best FPS-per-watt ?
I think it was more about the CCD and not the Cache die.Wut? No!
SRAM already suffers from not scaling anymore. 3D V$ allows stacking cache, it doesn't overturn the fact that smaller nodes will be more expensive.
Zen4c already has less cache precisely because it's more of a waste on a more expensive node meant to be denser. Makes no sense to have 3D V$ options at the smaller node.
The cache die obviously wouldn't be on N3E. I'm talking about the underlying compute die.Wut? No!
