Why are core numbers no longer climbing? I want 32 or 64 cores in consumer chips.
Maybe Amdahl’s Law is in consideration at this point? Either way, for most consumers there’s no need for more cores, and CPUs are made to be sold. I’m guessing at this point gaming performance is one of the most important metrics to differentiate a consumer CPU, so it makes sense that adding more cores is not a priority in that regard.
Hmm, no 9800x. Disappointing. There’s no way I’m paying $500 for a CPU.
