    I thought one of the major reasons for getting into chiplets was yields and that the I/O die didnt benefit from scaling it down any more?

      I don’t think it’s that it doesn’t benefit, but its benefits have little effect on performance. On Zen 4 the io die adds a constant 30W to the power usage (which is a huge portion of the total TDP) so maybe they want want to reclaim some of that
