I am intrigued by Renoir monolithic CPU design, I believed it was a single chunk of silicon with 8 zen2 cores talking to each other without the separate IO die, but I was told that is not the case and it's that the IO was just shrunk to 7nm and placed closed together, each CCX need to use the IO to talk to each other. Or Renoir is more like Zen 1 each CCX have their own separate Uncore?
