Discussion Realistically how much farther can apus go without say gddr dims become a thing to use as system ram?
The 890m for example is bottle necked by ram speed if it's not soldered RAM due to speeds that soldered into board ram can hit that modules can't. Nevermind how the strix halo/8060S needs soldered ram because speed.
I know that gddr is less than optimal for CPUs but 3d cache can fix the majority of that. So will we reach a point where in order for apu to keep advancing on computers we need gddr modules or even soldered gddr as system ram?
