    i like how almost everything you said about RISC completely false. They have a smaller instruction set, and those instructions (hopefully) execute in fewer cycles. but that doesn't make them "less general purpose", they certainly aren't "designed to run vetted apps from an app store" (that's an OS design choice that has absolutely nothing to do with the CPU architecture!), and that's not fundamentally why they're more power efficient; they're low power chips because they were designed to be low power chips. Plenty of people will argue that RISC is more conducive to low power designs, and they might be right, but that's a matter of debate, not something to be stated as fact. And, there are high power ARM chips out there. ARM is not fundamentally low power.
    You would've been better off just saying, "phones use specialized low-power ARM CPUs, and run apps designed to work well without a lot of computing power".

      Yeah this isn’t like CPUs vs GPUs. ARM processors are general purpose processors just like x86 and anything else. RISC and CISC are antiquated concepts at best, but really it’s just a bunch of marketing BS from the 80s that we should walk away from forever.

      ​@@kristiansims Are you saying ARM isn't really RISC anymore due to all the instruction set extensions that have been added over the years? or are you just saying it just doesn't really matter from the perspective Linus is talking from?
      RISC and CISC are definitely distinct approaches to computing. The differences don't matter all that much to end users or high-level software developers, but they definitely matter for people who write compilers and interpreters, or anyone writing heavily-optimized low-level code.

      @c99kfm 5 лет назад +12

      @@xnamkcor No, RISC is, as Linus says, Reduced Instruction Set. Though a 386 could be said to be quite RISC in comparison to a 9900K, the 386 itself would still be considered a CISC (Complex Instruction Set).
      x86 is a very complex architecture, comparatively, even when compared to other CISC parts. It started large and have mostly maintained backwards compatibility while including ever more things. For instance, modern 64-bit CPUs, x86-64, are still x86-compatible, since they can run in 32-bit mode. A few instruction sets have been dropped, as time moves on - of note is the 3DNow set, which was present in AMD CPUs for a time but has since been removed. Some older games, like Mass Effect, which only check if your CPU is an AMD, will have visual artifacts in some places as a result.
      3DNow, itself, consists of 26 instructions, which was a small part of then-current x86 CPUs. Current models have over 1500 instructions.
      ARMv7, a common RISC architecture, consists of 34 instructions, as a comparison.
      Edit: Nice, visual listing of various instructions of x86 (which should demonstrate why it's more Complex than Reduced):

      @fail1807 5 лет назад +8

      @@xnamkcorYes you are right. Internally, modern X86 CPUs use RISC cores and translate the X86 instructions to (if necessary multiple) instructions for the RISC core. This is done so that Features like Pipelines and Branch prediction (that speed up programm execution) can be implemented easily. On the other hand, the added translation logic adds complexity and power draw, which is why X86 CPUs are not as power-efficient and cheap as say ARM. So externally they behave like CISC cores and keep compatibility to the X86 instruction set, internally they use RISC

    I imagine a desktop setup designed to dissipate the heat and designed with openable compartmentd above key points (above the hard drive graphics card etc) where you can insert chilled dry gel ice packs. Moisture could be controlled by placing the icepacks into sealable plastic bags before putting them in the compartments, and making the compartments thick enough to prevent condensation but still provide direct cooling. Depending on the size of the gel pack, you could cool your rig for a significant period of time before having to replace a pack.

    Something important to know about RISC processors is that they aren't less capable than x86 processors (or other CISC processors) in terms of what they can do - it's that they have less of those features implemented in hardware. This makes RISC CPUs a lot more power efficient in simple tasks but a lot slower in complex tasks. This is because the complex features implemented in hardware on x86 CPUs have to be implemented in software on RISC CPUs, which means more (sometimes waaayyy more) instructions need to be sent to a RISC CPU to achieve the same result as one or a few instructions on an x86 CPU.

    • @kensmith5694
      @kensmith5694 5 лет назад +1

      Two points:
      1) It may not be "waaaay more" but just "more" instructions fetched. Most code needs only simple instructions. The complex ones are done less often.
      2) You could very well have a RISC machine with more instructions than a CISC machine. Yes, it sounds weird but consider a RISC that has floating point and a CISC that doesn't.

    • @OllAxe
      @OllAxe 5 лет назад

      @@kensmith5694 1) It can be way more in certain cases, but it usually isn't, which is why I said "sometimes". It all depends on the instructions that are run and the chips and architectures you compare. However, it is true that the complex instructions aren't called as much. That's how RISC gets away with a lesser amount of specialized instructions while still remaining fairly powerful, and therefore being very power efficient
      2) This, again, depends on the chip and architectures being compared. Comparing a CISC chip old enough to not support floating point values with a RISC chip that do is not a fair comparison

    That a processor is RISC processor doesn't mean that it doesn't need active cooling, for example the PowerPC architecture are a RISC instruction set and they need substantial cooling. Furthermore, most CISC processors today are RISC processors emulating a CISC instructionset, this is because many CISC instructions are doing almost the same thing with just minor variations. In fact the first thing your x86 cpu does is break down the complex CISC instruction in to several simpler RISC instructions which allows it to more efficiently utilize the hardware and enables things like out of order execution and hyper threading.
