The death of Moore’s Law is finally starting to stink
- Moore's Law, which is the number of transistors in a chip would double about every two years, isn't cleanly dying like one might expect and instead is somewhat awkward and ongoing.
- We have two brand new generations from AMD and Intel, neither of which really came out of the gate swinging.
- Even within just a few years, the rate of performance improvements has slowed considerably.
- AMD and Intel may not talk about it publicly, but both companies clearly see the writing on the walls.
- That's likely why Intel pivoted to a hybrid architecture in the first place.
- And for AMD's part, it's no secret that 3D V-Cache has become a defining technology for the company's CPUs, and it's a clear way to skirt the bottleneck of Moore's Law.
- A function of space - You cannot separate the number of transistors from the size of the die.
- Moore's Law is dead, PC hardware is getting more expensive, and everything sucks - that's not how I want to leave this.
- But AI also represents a way to bring a new form of computing.
- It really doesn't matter if Moore's Law is dead or alive and well - if companies like AMD, Intel, and Nvidia want to stay afloat, they'll continually need to think of solutions to address rising performance demands.
