>but haven't reduced the power consumption per gate as much. That is simply not true. You can run the 64 Core on EPYC 2 all at once at 3Ghz all with Air Cooling. At every node they have reduced power consumption that is also one reason you see continuous performance improvement. |

I'm not claiming anything controversial. Power not having scaled as well as area recently is often referred to as the end of Dennard scaling:

That can be true despite the fact that power hasn't scaled as well as area.

Yep, just not as much as they improved area.
