For those that talked about the Mobile "Compute" Cores,
https://www.amd.com/Documents/Compute_Cores_Whitepaper.pdf
https://www.amd.com/Documents/Compute_Cores_Whitepaper.pdf
and,Compute Core:
Any core capable of running at least one process in its own context and virtual memory space, independently from other cores.
Also, PR material specify what "Compute" Cores are, so that people will not confuse CPU x86 cores with the rest.THE COMPUTE CORE NOMENCLATURE
Beginning in 2014, products from various semiconductor companies, particularly those that are members of the HSA Foundation, will begin introducing heterogeneous devices. To assist in evaluating these new processor solutions, AMD is adopting the Compute Core nomenclature as a designation for processors that meet the HSA specifications and as a general method of comparing these solutions. With the first generation of heterogeneous processors based on the architecture of the APU codenamed “Kaveri”, AMD will begin designating the number of compute cores in the following manner.
AMD A10-7850K APU with Radeon™ R7 graphics 12 Compute Cores (4 CPU + 8 GPU)
