As for Metro Exodus, it’s more like:

When game devs get too ambitious and spawns SystemInfo.processorCount() workers for a 32-thread battleroyale in the L3$

APO still slightly outperforms E-cores off and HT off in this game, so I’m assuming APO does something useful with the 16MB of L2$ to take pressure of the L3$

So they could easily support this on 13th gen, but won’t because they want to create an artificial advantage for 14th gen that otherwise wouldn’t exist.

Can we stop calling it 14th gen? It’s 13th gen+
