Avast, me hearties! A fresh tale be blowin' on the winds, sayin' the fabled AMD "Sound Wave" APU be as swift as a Snapdragon, eh? Aye, 'tis a right merry jest if true! We be settin' sail for tech treasures or just chasin' gulls! Yarrr!
Ahoy, me hearties! Gather 'round as I spin ye a yarn of the mysterious AMD "Sound Wave" chip, a wondrous contraption said to be an Arm-based APU, fit for the likes of a tech-savvy pirate! Rumor has it, this here marvel boasts RDNA 3.5+ CUs, all spruced up for them machine learnin' shenanigans!Rumors from the trusty sea dog Moore's Law is Dead tell of its specs—a TSMC 3nm chip with two grand performance cores and four efficiency cores, makin' six in total—all wrapped in 4MB of L3 cache. But hold yer cannonballs! It’s the 16MB Infinity Cache that sets the ship sailin’! Aye, unusual for a scallywag with a power draw of merely 5-10 watts!
This chip be workin' hard on AI tasks, with a 4th Generation AI Engine ready to hoist the sails. While it may not be the swashbucklin’ gaming behemoth we once thought, it’s geared more towards the high seas of machine learnin' than high-flyin’ FPS! Alas, we may not learn more until 2026, but for now, we’ve a right jolly speculation to navigate!
