Intel laptop parts had 128MB of eDRAM starting in 2013. Is that mainstream enough for you?

Had. And then floated away down the stream, never to be seen again, at least not with 128MB.

On what frequency did that eDRAM worked?

If the effective freq was 100mhz, you being hit by cache misses will indeed be "only" 2-3 times less bad than as if you used memory round trip

If they had ever made it available at the mid-high end or released it outside of a couple weird SKUs before they quietly buried it, then it would count.
