Hey everone, first time poster here with a question about Apple's A9X SoC/M9 Coprocessor

Well, putting the m9 coprocessor directly onto the die saves more power because it doesn't require a dedicated chip to do the work, it's embedded directly onto the CPU. The architectural changes during the transition also makes it more efficient because they have to design it so the TDP of the A9x doesn't get too high.
Wow, thank you for the fast answer. So would you say another factor is that currents don't have to travel as far compared to if it were on it's own dedicated chip? I'm a hardware noob who is doing a presentation in this hardware class for IT students and I wanted to include what exactly makes this integration more efficient.
