Why ask someone just caught red handed lying to everyone for the last year?

Fyi, I said the exact opposite. LNC has nothing to do with Royal. That's just more MLID nonsense.

Yup, lol. I bailed after the thread became nothing more than a circus of Zen 5 hype. It's kind of funny watching the backpedaling. After all, what's the point of a circus if you can't enjoy the clowns? :) More trolling and insults. You need to stay in your Intel threads. esquared Anandtech...

Are you itching to be wrong a third time, or would this be fourth? You spent months insulting people over what turned out to be complete BS. Maybe take a lesson from that? Trolling is not allowed. But you knew that. esquared Anandtech Forum Director

What? The cores are quite a bit bigger. You're not redeeming Zen 5 with either area or power. Or sometimes hype, especially from high profile executives, is just hype.

It did though.

Because your Turin numbers are just as wrong as your Zen 5 IPC claims.

He/she seems to be implying that Zen 5c and 5d are different cores???

You'd probably be better off putting him (and some others) on mute. Best not to feed the trolls. But regarding Discord, I don't think you'd like the forum equivalents there much. Way too fast paced and meme heavy. Gives me a headache. I don't think there is anything amazing about them? If...

It's not worth it. Half memes, half people pretending to know what they're talking about, even worse than here, if that's possible.

I don't think RWC has notably different design methodology from GLC/RPC. LNC is where they should enter the 21st century.

Any SPR contracts Intel might have had were surely lost with the delays and other issues. I don't see this being a realistic reason in 2023.

I'm not aware of any way to tell if they don't include it in either the brandstring or the label, nor do I know why it's a thing. Never seen an example myself to learn why.

Just for the record, don't rely on the brand string for an accurate metal stepping number. You'll sometimes see "silent" steppings that the company doesn't want visible at a product level. And there will probably be more shenanigans with chiplets in the mix.

AMD may not always ship their lead Zen product on A-step silicon, but they've done it for the follow-ons like their mobile chips. That's a tradeoff they make. By serializing the APUs behind the desktop IP implementations (CPU and graphics), they're able to minimize the risk of bugs an...
