Trad / M1 Layout is what interests me, might that also have an inverted mode...?
Curious as to what #3 - Hybrid Layout is all about...?
You have said in the past that you want "64 or 80 cores in a backpack" before, so maybe ASUS / ROG is gonna go nuts & give us their miniDTX / Threadripper version of the ASRock Rack DeepITX Epyc mobo...?
I mean, I would have no problems selling off my C8I (w/ 3900X CPU, 32GB TridentZ Neo RAM <3600/16 B-die>, & two 1TB Rocket 4.0 M.2 SSDs) to move to such a beast...!
( ...but I also could see a mDTX mobo with a Threadripper-sized socket for a Mega APU, single component to cool...! )
See above...! ;^p
Normal thickness radiators & 25mm thick fans please...! More choices whether custom or AIO, no waiting for low inventory semi-custom items...?
But I don't know if they would do another Enthusiast SFF (which means expensive) mobo with AM4, when AM5 & DDR5 might be "just around the corner"...? Same for Threadripper, maybe they also want to wait for DDR5...?
I would think if AMD ever decides to "go for it" and produce a Mega APU for the consumer market, that would definitely benefit from DDR5...?
( ...and then there is the new kid on the block with a vertically integrated APU solution, the forthcoming smaller Apple Silicon-powered Mac Pro... )
;^p
