We can compare performance with other TSMC N6 designs. Even more so if we also know the area and power.
>not going to outperform anything from the past decade's worth of amd64 products.
This isn't some U74. This is P870. Its published performance data is no joke.
I was curious to see how far RISC-V still have to go from a microarchitecture stand point, but even in the same silicon process level, there are other things to take into account: the RISC-V compiler support, and something which is really new: since RISC-V is a non-IP-lock worldwide standard, assembly writting is much more a reasonable thing.
Knowing it is TSMC N6 unlocks at least this much.
