I am guessing cost may have played a role.
Would love to upgrade my Intel N200 notebook to something newer that's super low power and light, but also can't be high-priced.

Hopefully, Wildcat Lake fills this role, doesn't increase too much in price, and exists by this time next year.

Based on the description in the article, it sounds like Lunar Lake is effectively a monolithic design.

I had somehow gotten the impression the dies were closer to equal, in size. I guess the layout is a lot more similar to dual-die Intel SoCs we've seen in the past, where the second die is basically the southbridge.

BTW, here are some stats, including core size comparison with Apple M3 (made on the same node).
