Looks like I'm not the only one here with a 1050Ti
And yeah, those start to get really slow. In mobile GPUs, the MX450 already comes awfully close to the 1050Ti, only getting hampered by the slower and less memory. And Zen 4 APUs should also not be far off anymore

Infinity Cache would likely be prohibitively expensive unless AMD can justify it by unifying that cache for CPU operations in order to justify the transistor expenditure... Which isn't likely to happen in a cost sensitive product like an APU. |
Considering that Zen 3 APUs (which thankfully won't be OEM only like the Zen 2 ones) come with now 16MB of L3, I do think with a shrink to 5nm adding 16MB of infinity cache should be doable. The chip would get somewhat bigger due to the additional CU and cache, but not overly so.
Also, I know DDDR5 ain't the cure, but it will still boost the bandwidth quite a bit. Hence why I only went with a modest increase to 12CU with Zen 4. But it will certainly help, and with the infinity cache, allow to get close to Polaris performance (as in the RX 470) in 2023-2024

Still using a quadcore (7700HQ) - but most of my games are either oldies or the are indies, so the quadcore is sufficient for me most of the time.
