Intel VP claims up to 30% of CPU performance is untapped by modern games — software optimization is critical to unlocking full potential of hybrid CPUs

Intel is claiming that better software optimization for hybrid architecture CPUs can unlock up to 30% more performance without hardware upgrades. The silicon itself is very capable, but its true potential is held back by code that perhaps prioritizes more conventional silicon and, therefore, benefits from brute-force upgrades like extra L3 cache.
