I was hoping to see a 12 chiplet, 24 core, 1152 MB L3 cache version that was frequency optimized (~4.5 Ghz one thread tubro, ~3.7 Ghz base). Still for those looking for high single threaded performance, the 9184X should fit that niche well, just not going all out.
One thing I haven't heard is two DIMM per channel support officially for existing Genoa parts. That was something AMD was in the process of validating this during the Genoa launch with it as a supported feature down the road. Well Genoa just got its first refresh.
The Dual dimm support is available, you can find it on several Tyan, Asus and other board vendors... It is the typical OEM that have no offering (SuperMIcro) does have. The usual OEM think they know better and want to controll the market, just like they don't really want to offer the single socket AMD much (yes they have it in portfolio) but OEM mngmnt and marketing don't like it and want to get rid of it. But actually its the best virtualization server you can get (single socket) no numa hassle, good balance memory and io wise. (off course mass people are used to the Intel dual socket habbit) like to sell dual cpu....
Apple's ram is faster. The primary limitation for latency is the speed of light in copper between the memory and the cpu. Apple places their ram closer, so it has lower latency than memory sockets.
What's the difference in (arch) priorities, memory access patterns, interconnections, (shared through DMA?), memory cost/size, availability or Kernel support (2023) between V-cache and HBM? (Thx)

Presumably Apple will still claim their M2 Ultra Mega Turbo is 5-6x faster than this whilst making you more attractive to all sexes?mikegrok - Wednesday, June 14, 2023 - link

I wonder how these will do in gaming! all that L3 cache mmmnandnandnand - Friday, June 16, 2023 - link
Not too great, since it will have lower clocks and the same 96 MB per core as 7800X3D.
