x86/x64, SIMD, #AVX512, "Aha!" moments.
I have been writing code since 1986.

There are a few working #WildCatLake among #Intel test machines: (CPUID D06D1, 6c/6t (2P+4LPE probably), 2500 MHz base freq, no HTT, no AVX512, I think Intel 18A)

Has anyone come across the pin number of the #AMD #SP8 socket? Maybe e.g. a cooler or motherboard manufacturer has already posted it somewhere...

One possible application of the #AVX512_BMM VPMACOR16x16x16 instruction is the compact index2msk function: if src2 is a full mask and src3 contains variably shifted masks, then VPMACOR16x16x16 will collect them into a single word. The order and repetitions are arbitrary.

Thanks to @TDevilfish insightful comments, now is clear that classic #AMD #Zen6 CCD will come with SP8 socket only in the server space. This lead to the revelation is that B50F00 CPUID is means the #Venice with dense CCD.
