Originally posted by numacross View PostI was about to post this, but it's a claim without a source. I was not able to find anything useful on AMD's official site, it's probably still under NDA.
Also, it would be a little surprising for AMD to keep this stuff under wraps. Intel usually publishes ISA support of their products a couple years in advance, so that more software is ready by the time it launches.

Originally posted by coder View PostAll of the Apple Mac chips we've seen so far are laptop-oriented. We still have yet to see their ARM-based successor to the Mac Pro.
Also, they haven't yet moved beyond the Firestorm core, which first launched in the A14 phone SoC, about 2 years ago.
In other words, I wouldn't count them out, on the performance front. And I'm pretty sure they still beat Zen 4 in perf/W.Last edited by Dukenukemx; 30 August 2022, 02:20 PM.

Originally posted by ms178 View Postthe latter could provide a nice performance boost in some areas.
I think OpenGL (or perhaps D3D) is what pushed fp16 into IEEE754-2008 (the last part is the year of the revision), but we didn't see GPUs seriously implementing fp16, until they started using it for packed arithmetic aimed pretty squarely at deep learning.
Fun fact: Intel first added support for fp16 in Ivy Bridge, but they only went so far as to add fp16 conversion instructions. Perhaps that was anticipating broader use in GPUs.

However, the main relevance of the Alder Lake row is that it should match what Sapphire Rapids officially supports.

Originally posted by WannaBeOCer View PostIntel announced Raptor Lake will have 15% faster IPC than Alder Lake
Perhaps what you're thinking of is single-thread performance, which is approximately the product of IPC ratio and clock speed ratio. If that's what you mean, then you have to compare it with AMD's claim of 29% faster single-threaded performance than Zen 3. Using your figure of 2% better IPC than Alder Lake would give Zen 4 a 16.4% single-threaded advantage over Alder Lake.
