https://www.qualcomm.com/news/releases/2021/03/16/qualcomm-completes-acquisition-nuvia Is the Apple M1 competitor coming? Also the announcement does not mention servers, which was Nuvia original target.

Arm highlights its next two generations of CPUs, codenamed Matterhorn and Makalu, with up to a 30% performance uplift. Matterhorn (Cortex-A79?) will be the last to support the 32-bit ARM ISA and the next big cores, like Makalu, will support only the 64-bit ISA...

https://fuse.wikichip.org/news/2318/ice-lake-brings-a-new-cpu-gpu-ipu-and-i-os-to-follow-by-tiger-lake-next-year/ Both Tiger Lake and Arctic Sound (Intel’s discrete client graphics solution) are back from the fab. 7nm Xe GPGPUs will launch in 2021. A small mistake: contrary to what says the...

10nm Process Technology: Intel’s first volume 10nm processor, a mobile PC platform code-named “Ice Lake,” will begin shipping in June. The Ice Lake platform will take full advantage of 10nm along with architecture innovations. It is expected to deliver approximately 3 times faster wireless...

Despite all the hype and biased reviews, CoffeeLake and Skylake-X are selling very well even in pro-AMD stores

http://www.fujitsu.com/global/about/resources/news/press-releases/2018/0621-01.html The post-K prototype will be exhibited at ISC 2018, which will be held in Germany from June 24--28. (48 + 2) or (48 + 4) cores per node, built on top of ARMv8 ISA plus SVE extensions (implemented with 512bit...

https://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/3032131/intel-tipped-to-launch-discrete-gpu-at-next-years-ces The rumor is that Intel has been working in the GPU during two years and could launch it in January 2019. What I would like to know is if this will be only a dGPU on package (KBL-G style) or...

Intel and ARM were confirmed time ago, but no word on AMD. Now comments on a kernel fix seem to confirm AMD is affected as well http://anzwix.com/a/DragonFlyBSD/Kernel - Fix CVE-2018-8897, Debug Register Issue

https://www.pcper.com/news/Editorial/Jim-Keller-Leaves-Tesla-Intel It seems the dream team is joining Intel. First Koduri now Keller... His work could be related to "Ocean Cove" core project https://www.fool.com/investing/2018/04/25/intel-corp-wants-to-build-a-revolutionary-processo.aspx

https://hothardware.com/news/amd-epyc-2-64-cores-128-threads-and-256mb-l3-cache It seems my prediction of 6-core CCX for Zen2 has been just killed. Either AMD is going for 8-core CCX modules or will maintain the same 4-core configuration and will add four CCX modules per die. I think 8-core...

The Xeon thread was closed, therefore I am posting this stuff here

https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ryzen-Compiler-Issues It originally looked as an bug on GCC, but last research seems to confirm this is part of the older SMT/uop bug. Remember that earlier engineering samples had uop or the SMT disabled due to this bug. It seems that the bug...
