In AMD's case most systems that will be running without a dGPU will likely be mobile APU based anyway.
Mobile APUs are generally better suited to office PC style usecases than stuff like Raphael. They idle lower, those kinds of office style PC have no real usecase for the handful of cores you...
Integer scores are up but FP results seem to be down a bit.
The AES score is disastrous on both scores, it's dragging down the average significantly. Here's a breakdown with a PHX result that's actually quite similar to the one @Gideon posted earlier:
I'm not sure about that result you're looking at, but a 7950X at 3.1GHz on Linux scores ~2200pts (EDIT: wrong number, ~1300pts). If you use that as a basis, you get 22.3% IPC uplift.
To be fair he's not wrong on one thing: a lot of PHX devices come with memory frequency settings available to play around with. I've seen it in some reviews of handhelds, and I'm sure my Win Mini has it too.
And not just a toggle between different rated frequencies, an input box for frequency...
It's not just X Plus, also one of the X Elite SKUs gets it's boost clock removed, which is mega annoying. I really wish there was a different name for that SKU, maybe it should have been the "X Pro" instead. Because losing nearly 20% ST clocks vs the top end X Elite is easily a whole...
You're looking at the wrong mobile part.
Strix Halo is probably a better glimpse as to where the future of desktop lies. Albeit I imagine a future desktop part would run a much smaller IOD with a much smaller iGPU than STX-Halo will have, the fundamentals will probably be the same.
This patent reminds me a lot of A10 Fusion, where the little cores ended up being almost transparent to software because if a workload was heavy enough it would transition from the little cores to the big cores, and primarily use those instead (not sure how that was determined by the...
Cinebench tracks well with SPEC?
Interesting claim. Any reason you posted the charts for Zen 3 over Zen 2 instead of Zen 4 over Zen 3?
Oh, that's why. The ST perf in R20 gain (16.5%) was barely over than the clock gain (16.3%) from Zen 3 to Zen 4. There was a ~13% uplift in IPC that seems...
