Archaeologists originally identified them as Homo erectus, but Hanjiang Normal University paleoanthropologist Xiaobo Feng and his colleagues’ recent digita

It’s reminiscent of the arrangement Huawei used for Kunpeng 920, but apparently without the uniform chiplet height restrictions of Huawei’s design.
