it's always two dumb chiplets telling each other "exactlyyyyy"

Using Zen CPUs in desktops: "yes...YES! Look at all of my beautiful CPU cores! Chiplets rock!!"

Using Zen CPUs in servers: "what is this 'chiplets' bullshit. what the fuck is happening to my tail latency?? Mods??????"

The last major technological innovation that made a genuine change in how we live was the smartphone.

Everything since has been iterative, not innovative.

Even "chiplets" are iterative, because it's just a new way to do multi-CPU systems which we've had since the 1990s.

We're at a dead halt.

We are in the age of RISC-V chiplets, apparently.

Still testing the new DeepComputing DC-ROMA Mainboard II, with 8 SiFive P550 cores, Imagination GPU, and separate NPU chip, with 32 GB of shared RAM. The way it works is... interesting.

Stay tuned for a video. Might take a little longer than usual.

‪ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES, INC: “we have invented a new kind of chiplet that’s made out of other chiplets. this enables us to create the new EPYC 9666X3D with 32GB of L2 cache. topology information will be available to system software via a new CPUID leaf that instantly kills you.”‬

The way they used to make tech was interesting; the workarounds, the mistakes, the rush to be first, the successes and even the failures all represented achievements.

I think the only real big innovation I can think of are "chiplets," but those were just a new way to do multi CPUs.

For Ryzen CPUs, AMD would have to put out a different model, and that would mean a parallel ecosystem: DDR Ryzen CPUs, and HBM Ryzen CPUs. Each would need their own motherboards and they wouldn't be compatible with each other.

Intel's moving to chiplets, so they could do likewise.

The widespread adoption of chiplets in domain-specific applications is creating a partitioning challenge that is much more complex than anything chip design teams have dealt with in previous designs.

Now, we can come up with more stopgaps to work around the coming problems with silicon, and we can probably rearrange the deck chairs for another decade or so. We've already done things like hyperthreading, multiple cores per processor, chiplets, 3D transistors, lots of tricks and workarounds.

Transistor scaling is hitting thermal and cost ceilings, pushing chip design toward modular chiplets connected by high-speed links. With shared substrates and tailored process nodes, teams manage heat density and sustain performance without relying on miniaturization.

Loongson's 3C6000 series can use one, two or four of these chiplets for 16, 32 or up to 64 of their own LA664 cores. They still use a DDR4 interface, while prices for DDR4 are raising right now.

Does anyone know where the chiplets are being made?

AMD’s new Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 is releasing on April 22nd. It has 16 cores, 208MB of total cache, and both chiplets have AMD’s 3D V-Cache. AMD is aiming it at creators and devs, with 5–10% performance gains over the 9950X3D in DaVinci Resolve and Blender www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ern...
