Bulldozer was usually slower than Intel's offerings and more inefficient. Intel's CPUs are just more inefficient, but like Bulldozer can sometimes compete on value.
The competition is much closer this time, and if the rumors are true that Arrow Lake is focusing more on efficiency things can get interesting.

If the new simplified scheduler actually prevents the cuck cores from getting loaded with heavy tasks then this could be a genuinely good processor, especially since it maintains last gens performance after deleting hyper threading

e-cores are 1/4 the size of p-core but they only sacrificing 33% performance. its a really good way to achieve best price to multicore performance way better value than ccx that amd uses.

why have they completely changed the names
>>
>>102473913
Having a core that is inefficient in die area and power usage but is performant, alongside a core that is efficient in die area and power usage at the cost of performance, is an ideal mix so you can assign the right kinds of threads between them. AMD understands this as well, having neutered Zen 4c cores which fulfill the same role, but AMDrones still haven't updated their script from the Zen 3 era.
>>
>>102475991
You don't really.
The problem with X86's software ecosystem is that any given task is usually unconstrainted by anything but CPU speed.
You open a browser, it immediately gets processed on the highest performance core as the browser isn't waiting on something else like a network connection. Only when the browser is done loading will it move to an efficiency core as normal operation is now more likely waiting to be served web resources which is more time dependent.

Android which has had heterogenous core groups for ages now has an API that lets applications recommended what type of cores it should be schedule to. Browsers and regular apps may ask to be put on a "little" core, more interactive apps and light games may request "mid" cores, full fat heavy games may request "big" cores.
>>
>>102478523
no actually it isnt, the reality is that intelaviv moved to ecores because the transistor density of intel 7 (10nm) is garbage, they can fit nearly 4 e cores in the same area as 1 p core, it is the direct result of not being able to hit 100mtr/mm^2 as originally intended. a 16 pcore design with avx 512 would perform better in 100% of workloads, vs the hybrid design.

efficency wise there is little difference between a pcore and an ecore, as the pcores scale with power just as well as the ecores, they just have a higher frequency ceiling.

>because the transistor density of intel 7 (10nm) is garbage
Transistor density is irrelevant, the concept scales with any node density because it's just a good idea, which is why ARM started it, and both Intel and AMD adopted it for future products. A Heterogenous core design is seen on Meteor Lake's Intel 4, on Zen 4's N4, and on every node imaginable with ARM.
>a 16 pcore design with avx 512 would perform better in 100% of workloads
No, that depends on the workload. E cores are roughly 33-40% as performant as a P core, but you get 4 of them for slightly more than the size of a single P core. A program that could take advantage of the 64-odd E cores that would replace the 16 P cores is probably going to outperform the 16 P cores, and it might even do it more efficiently.
>the pcores scale with power just as well as the ecores,
At the top end, maybe. At the bottom, not at all.
>>
>>102470449
why won't they give us pure p-core and pure e-core offerings
e-cores are great at value and multi-core, far more than what the vast majority of the market needs, people who want p-core performance will gladly pay for it, price and electricity wise

they released pure p-core sapphire rapids and enterprise said they'd like some ecores

>>102475061
>e-cores are 1/4 the size of p-core but they only sacrificing 33% performance
its always been about 33% the size if you look at die shots. skymont got even bigger so its more like 40% the size now

>>
>>102470449
It's very obvious how e-cores are a way for intel to justify charging the same prices for a worse product to appear competitive to their shareholders against AMD.
>>
>>102479596
transistor scaling is irrelevant? you litterally cant fit as many cores because of it

, as for scaling its pretty clear cut, you take a product like the 12400f , scores 12500 points in cinebench r23 without power limits 12500/4.4 ghz /6 cores × 5.2 × 16 = 39,393 that basically puts it over a 14900k, without avx 512 being used and using the smaller caches that alderlake has at 5.2ghz all core.

and yeah they do scale to low power, at the very low end there are some advantages to the ecores, but we're talking sub 15w tdp, which is irrelevant to dekstop chips and anything above that. not to mention that the ecores are clocked so far outside their peak efficiency range on dekstop, that the point is moot.

Intel is hedging on Arrow Lake to hold the netbook/laptop market their last remaining stronghold in x86. They are banking on efficiency and their long-standing OEM relationships to weather the storm.
I can't see Arrow Lake contesting Zen4/Zen5 at desktop environment or above if the rumored clockspeeds are true.
>>
>>102473913
It is a short-term cope by Intel to keep-up with AMD in the core-count race until they fully get into chiplets. Monolithic dies cannot scale-up on core-count purely because of economics.

The Intel E cores are the reason Intel cpus idle at around 8 watts when you are just using your pc for browsing the web, while AMD cpus idle between 25-40 watts

>>102480397
no avx 512 enabled on consumer chips, early microcode allows you to enable it on some 12000 series with ecores disabled, but later models have it fused off physically. if you want avx 512 , amd or xeon workstation are your only options for an upgrade with proper support.

Why are you faggots complaining about the E-cores? They're way better both performance-wise and security-wise. I have yet to see a vulnerability cause by E-cores. Hyperthreading on the other causes not just one, but lots of unneeded vulnerabilities that had to be fixed by slowing down the computer part you bought.
Don't get me wrong I don't like intel as a company, but I can respect their decision to not longer use hyperthreading.
>>
>>102482538
because they are cuck cores, they are intel atom cores and they suck. hyperthreading isnt going anywhere btw, server will keep it, seems the reason for ditching hyperthreading is mainly power consumption.

>>102482538
current gen e-cores are only somewhat decent at integer workloads. in fp or latency sensitive loads, they fall flat on their face which is where all the e-core scheduling memes come from
>>
>>102479596
It's good on phones because they run off a battery and have problems getting rid of heat. It makes no sense on desktops, maybe on servers but honestly it's so Intel can call a chip 24 core even though it's not 24 of the same core so it's intentionally misleading.
>>
>>102482771
it makes sense on desktop (for intel) since intel can ship a chip that uses 12-13 p-cores worth of area that performs like a 16 p-core one in cinebench
the only good thing that came out of this is that their i5 and i7 cpus have a much larger percentage of the i9's performance without costing more
>>
>>102470449
so same shit since 12th gen?

what node are they built in?
>>
>>102482751
show me how much of that gain is moving from intel 4 to tsmc n3b and then i'll be impressed.
>>
>>102482798
I'll be skipping all Intel chips with e-cores from here on out. No thanks.
>>
Arrow Lake will be the best selling CPU of all time. All PC users who have waited for a long time for a great upgrade will finally have to wait no longer. Normies only buy intel and 97% of people are normies. It's so over for the competition.
>>
>>102481106
Am I meant to care that my computer is using 20 fucking watts more than it would if I had an intel?
Electricity is not that expensive.
