L3 is expensive though; do remember AMD actually needs to make a decent amount of profit on their chips.
That's AMDs real problem: what little OEM support they had died with the BD arch, simply because of thermal/power constraints. And now, Intel has the stronger iGPU, making it even harder for AMD to get into the OEM market. No matter how Zen performs at the top, AMD won't sell enough to make a return on investment if 99% of the market never purchases their product.
