>7 years later>Still no 10GHz
>>106830328i used this piece of crap. one of the older models without HT, even. it's a hard no from me. one of the worst processors of all time. it sucked so bad they literally had to go back to the pentium 3 arch for the core series. no.
>>106830331Anon, it's been 20 years
>>106829522>they lostIntel still has a $130 billion USD advantage in assets and $60 billion USD in straight equity MORE than what AMD is sitting on, in addition to pulling over 10x AMD's net income annually.That's enough 'fuck you' money to 'lose' for a few more decades.Current leadership wants to split Intel up for gay corporate $ reasons and all media doomposting should be considered a PSYOP, but anything can still happen at this stage.
>>106830836They lost 20 billion last year, not sustainable.
>>106830570I remember laughing at Pentium 4 fags back in those days while using my superior Athlon64.
>>106830996i bow to you anon. i wish i was smart enough to get an athlon back then. instead i got cucked by shintel.
>>106830996bitches dont know about my barton
>>106830996>Athlon64Same here. And Athlon XP before that.
>>106830331>7 years laterAnon... it's been 20 years nowhttps://www.eetimes.com/intel-develops-0-07-micron-transistor-for-10-ghz-processors-by-2005/
>>106832150Darkest timeline.
>>106830328Arguably, we have.Netburst had 20 pipeline stages.AMD's Zen 3 has 19 stages (Couldn't find a number for Zen 4 or 5).
>>106832061athlon xp would be usable today if it had sse2, damn
>>106832165More like picrel.And having 10 times more transistors to do better out-of-order execution, prediction, and reduce penalties helps a lot, especially you have enough cache to store decoded complete and complex routines...
>>106829522>no link>ancient repostDEAD INTERNET
>>106832357shut up faggot bump my thread or fuck off
>>106829522
>>106829522>>106830328I want my 10GHz Pentium 4 space heater.
>>106832322Derp. I forgot Prescott added another 11 stages.Also, yeah, no doubt about the transistor budget.Branch predictors have improved tremendously, and caches have gotten enormously larger and faster.
>>106829522you should stop being a faggot and post the god damn link
>>106832472not that it helps
>>106832493Lol. I saw that image yesterday, and it inspired me to write a toy program that is as performance unfriendly as possible.Right now I'm working on a routine to test for the cache line size and associativity so it can use that information to minimize the chance of a cache hit.I of course also ensure that all memory accesses are unalignedIt also makes copious use of dynamic dispatch and computed jumps to keep the branch predictor on it's toes.I'm genuinely curious how low the ipc can go.
>>106832692you are easily looking at a 30-40x impact, depending on the usual depending-ons
