Hello you fine Internet folks,
Today's article is on the brand new Lion Cove architecture from Intel found in the new Lunar Lake series of CPUs and what has changed from the prior Redwood Cove architecture.
Hope y'all enjoy!

OMG, is this really mainstream nowadays? This idea seems horrible to me. I kinda see the motivation behind it and yet…
In the 90s I've been wondering why the don't follow the design principles close to the SoCs of today, those were the days when performance was scarce and energy efficiency wasn't even remotely close to what we have today, but the designs remained highly modular.

But now — when computing performance is in abundance and energy-efficiency is stellar, miniaturisation is no longer a thing, but repairabity is becoming an important factor, they started resorting to this?😱
Makes no sense to me!
