I was going to be sad than Zen 6c was divergent, but they increased a bunch of OoO structures on Zen 6c? To absorb more potential latency, since the memory is going to be heavier loaded? Ok, that I can appreciate!

It's absolutely wild that adjusting some l3 and using a smaller node goes from 12 to 32 cores for basically the same chip.

I wonder if the CCD will remain as monolithic as it does, for how long? The l3 latency being signficantly higher for 6c (10.3ns zen5 -> 10.7ns z6 -> 16.4ns z6c) feels like a symptom of a broader scaling challenge as the CCD hosts more and more. I can imagine dividing zen 7 or zen8 CCD into partitions, perhaps?
