AMD Ryzen 7040 Series Shows Great AVX-512 Performance for Laptops / Mobile
AVX-512 is one of those technologies I thought I’d use all the time, but in practice all of the compute heavy workloads I use just moved to the GPU.<p>The real benefit of having AVX-512 client side is that I can test hyper-optimized server side code for unique operations.<p>The problem is that AVX-512 isn’t a singular instruction set. Different CPUs support different sets of AVX-512 instructions, meaning the instruction set on this AMD CPU might not match what our servers support anyway. Fortunately the common instructions are still useful.
