it small in size,around 1/4 the size of big "Golden Cove" core. Gracemont is a big architecture enhancement over Tremont Core, which is nurtured by the legendary Jim Keller. No avx512, but not skimpy in floating point.

The rumor is that Intel "Sierra Forest" will contain huge amount of small cores.

Ah thanks. Although even without so many cores, I got ideas on how to saturate all those new ports. Am I reading that those cores have an awful lot of execution ports?

I hope Intel settles down soon to actual product lines I'm having a very hard time predicting anything right now... As are most of the oems we buy from...

Any source on Keller having a significant role on Gracemont?
