Given the information around how AMD are currently focusing on the mid tier, it got me thinking about their focus on multi chiplet approaches for RDNA5+, they will be having to do a lot of work to manage high speed interconnects and some form of internal scheduler/balancer for the chipets to split out the work etc.

So with this in mind if they could leverage that work on interconnectors and schedulers at a higher level to be a more cohesive form of Crossfire/SLI they wouldnt even need to release any high end cards, as they could just sell you multiple mid tier cards and you just daisy chain them together (within reason). It would allow them to sell multiple cards to individuals increasing sales numbers and also let them focus on less models so simpler/cheaper production costs.

Historically I think the issues with Crossfire/SLI was that to make best use of it the developers had to do a lot of legwork to spread out loads etc, but if they could somehow handle this at the lower levels like they do with the chiplets then maybe it could be abstracted away from the developers somewhat, i.e you designate a master/slave GPUs so the OS just treats the main one as a bigger one or something.

I doubt this is on the cards but it felt like something the was plausible and worth discussion.
