gollark: nvidia-open is quite funny, since they just moved all of the proprietary stuff to a giant tens-of-megabytes firmware blob.
gollark: I think we still just run on L1/2/3 caches, occasionally L4 things, then RAM, and possibly persistent-memory DIMMs or really fast NVMe disks.
gollark: I don't know all the magic semiconductory details, but higher voltage generally means more power, but is needed to maintain stability if you're switching things fast.
gollark: Yes. Modern CPUs can dynamically adjust their voltage based on how much work they're doing.
gollark: No. And you would have to redesign basically everything, since transistors don't work that way.
