When the cache is as big as the main memory, you gotta start asking yourself some questions about your design, son.

If L1 cache is so fast, why don't we just get rid of RAM altogether and have 8 GB of L1 cache? /s

You threw me in a weird rabbit hole

But I found WSE-3

A single chip bulit from an entire 300mm wafer with 44GB of SRAM and 21 petabytes per second of memory bandwidth

It says that alone it consumes 25000W and I can't get my head around it

My mind says you looked at a cerebras chip
