"But now with more resources and engineering talent under their belt". Wow, they've really taken the concept of failing forward to a whole new level. I kid, I kid.
What's with the hate against AMD's bulldozer? I still run a FX-8150. Sure, it's not really worth the electricity it consumes, but if I changed it, I'd also have to buy new ram, new motherboard, etc. One of the first chip on the market to iommu, full passthrough capability, great virtualization chip and accepts basic ECC ram. It's really a classic.
And just like the bulldozer, I hear this Altra chip is great with INT but not that good with FP. From anandtech "Ampere didn’t provide similar numbers for SPEC2017_fp, because the company states that the SoC has been developed with INT workloads in mind."
