Would be interesting to see if they add cache for the whole die which is what they currently do or if they end up sectioning off caches for certain tasks to ensure everything has a shortest possible pathway for loading/unloading data.

AMD has released all the open source tools to allow developers to take advantage of AMD hardware. If developers don't want to invest into updating their pipelines there's very little AMD can do without bribing everyone, but then they'd be competing with Nvidia's pockets and Nvidia can go much deeper than AMD.
that is maybe all right and good.
but AMD puts a lot of effort into supporting game development.
i don´t see them do the same when it comes to applications.
it´s one thing to have tools availabe, another to have actual help from engineers.
nvidia seems to be way ahead when it comes to supporting software companys.

RTG's problem from what I can tell is the sheer funding disparity between them and AMD's CPU division. Granted Nvidia is utterly stomping them into the ground at the moment but the only way they can get back on their feet is more funding, primarily in the app support/driver department.
Having cutting edge hardware is one thing, having the resources to back it up and support it in a timely manner is another.

@ Gothmoth, that argument only works if AMDs documentation is awful.
When I did software development I would read documentation and figure out how to use it for what I needed. I didn't need an engineer to hold my hand. The job is problem solving 100%. The only time I would struggle is if I'm trying to account for edge cases or if the documentation was not perhaps the best worded piece and made it confusing(generalizing my struggles here, I'm no prodigy). Google and research the problem and if many people run into the issue, good, it gives you lots of insight. If nobody else runs into it, you might be using the wrong tool, etc(many variables here)
AMDs issue is just straight forward Nvidia has dominated the market for decades. Penetrating that market is nigh on impossible. Software engineers can do it, but if upper management doesn't see the point because they aren't being paid by AMD, well that's a problem AMD isn't in a position to really solve. Nvidia just keeps paying them fat checks. If they announce support for AMD, you can expect those checks to stop.
