Are you sure?? with only 8 MB of L3 instead 32MB the performance will be idiotic outside their fake slides. There isn't enough L3 to meet the L2 needs.
Why do you think Zen 2 needs mountains of cache to perform well? The 8 core AMD has just as much total cache as the 6 core i7. Do you label everything you don't like as fake? Is it possible to believe that Cinebench doesn't tell us everything about a processor, while also believing that AMD didn't fake their results? Did I use use enough question marks?
solarbear28.. why ?? because gondalf thinks the majority of zen 2s ipc gain is from its cache sizes.. if that was the case.. wouldnt intel of increased its caches as well ? he is an intel troll.. and will do what it takes to make intel look good.. and amd look bad. plain and simple... he just cant handle intel not being the best anymore...
It's a mobile chips not a desktop CPU and it uses a monolithic die which mean there's no latency penalty for having multiple chiplets. The 8MB cache won't stops these 45W chips from reaching their full potential.
Why hasn't AMD launched desktop Renoir? I think that is the only segment Intel still has a lead and AMD shall be able to take it easily. Maybe this segment is too small and AMD doesn't care.

Yes, it is indeed. Especially since Intel is still dealing with all the security holes and patches for it.samal90 - Tuesday, January 7, 2020 - link
Hopefully someone does a laptop with a 4800H chip without a dedicated GPU.Gondalf - Tuesday, January 7, 2020 - link

I think you guys are forgetting one thing here. Monolithic die.Nicon0s - Thursday, January 9, 2020 - link

To have what? Low performance?? You need of clock speed and large cache to meet workloads. Renoir have nothing of both.Jugotta Bichokink - Tuesday, January 7, 2020 - link
Extra-large cache is not useful to all workloads. False. Debunked.
