公众号记得加星标⭐️，第一时间看推送不会错过。 AMD之所以面临更高的发热量和更低的每瓦性能，原因很简单：Zen 5及其所有前代产品都是为数据 中心市场而设计的。知情工程师不断向我们透露，Infinity Fabric架构在移动领域功耗过高，难以实 现高效设计。此外，AMD也缺乏强有力的小核心策略。 福雷斯特·诺罗德领导的数据中心团队之所以能够蓬勃发展，得益于以数据中心为先导、覆盖面广且 功能强大的核心战略。而消费者和商业移动业务部门则不得不接受 Zen 5 的不足之处。 4nm工艺很难与英特尔18A和台积电3nm工艺竞争。 上周，AMD向金融和行业分析师展示了其未来几年的人工智能、数据中心和消费级产品计划。尽管 在数据中心市场取得了巨大成功，人工智能领域也取得了一定的进展，并且未来发展路线图清晰明 确，但我仍想指出其消费级产品路线图的一个不足之处，尤其是在2026年方面。 计算与图形事业部高级副总裁兼总经理Jack Huynh及其团队正朝着正确的方向前进；X3D台式机的 成功对微软来说是一项重大胜利。然而，在消费业务的某些关键领域，尤其是在消费级和商用笔记本 电脑领域，不太可能在2026年就立即取得成功。公 ...

美国参院两党议员4日提出一项法案，旨在将现行对先进半导体的出口管制措施正式立法，要求行政部 门未来至少30个月内拒发任何先进芯片出口至中国大陆、俄罗斯等国家的许可。此举可能导致英伟达无 法向中国大陆出口其先进AI芯片；AMD与Google的芯片也将受到规范。 这项被称为《安全芯片法案》（SAFE Act）的提案，要求美国商务部在未来两年半内，停止核发高于 现有许可性能标准的芯片出口许可。 SAFE法案提出的时机，恰巧发生在英伟达执行长黄仁勋与参院银行委员会共和党议员闭门会谈的隔 天，该委员会负责出口管制政策。黄仁勋前一天也和美国总统川普私下会面，他表示双方讨论出口管制 议题，但未透露细节。 法案获参议院外交委员会跨党派议员支持，被视为维持美国在人工智能领域对中国优势的关键举措。 这也对英伟达构成新挑战，该公司一直在游说川普政府与国会放宽出口限制，以维持其在中国AI芯片 市场的领先地位。此项法案提出前一天才传出，英伟达才刚成功游说国会暂缓另一项出口管制法案 GAIN AI Act（保障国家人工智能获取与创新法案）。 目前川普政府正评估是否允许英伟达对中国销售H200芯片。若同意放行，将显著偏离自2022年起实施 ...
