@Aschenbrenner That would depend on the workload. A Samsung 990 PRO will do much better for sequential throughput, but that old Optane will have lower latency and better random perf at low queue depths

@nikoneugebauer I understand the financial appeal to Intel. But Intel is not in a position of strength vs. AMD Genoa for general purpose compute.

The specialized accelerators in Sapphire Rapids can help offset that, if more ISVs start using them. Trying to charge extra (and confusing people) seems like it will slow adoption.

I think "Intel On Demand" is a huge short-sighted mistake.

Intel has some potentially interesting and useful hardware offload accelerators in Sapphire Rapids.

Doing this will slow adoption of those accelerators.

@DaveMasonDotMe For years, Intel has had artificial product segmentation in their server SKUs. This on demand stuff just makes it worse...

They would be better off to emulate AMD and reduce the number of SKUs and have most SKUs support all features, period.
