True. True, it'll only be on the server side market. but didn't intel just buy Centaur with their AVX-32768 as well? but again, probably for use in server side or their GPUs.

I assume for higher level AVX support we'd need client side compiled code or multiple binaries with different compile flags. which is quite doable today, as everyone downloads software from services like apple store, windows store, steam, adobe, AutoCAD download manager etc. so client side it shouldn't be a big issues anymore. the downloader will just fetch the optimal binary for the platform you're using?
