1.5 generations behind?
>> TSMC .. lags about one and a half generations behind .. IntelSo basically TSMC will be releasing chips that compete with the Pentium 4 3ghz! Nice move AMD!
Will be good for AMD
This is for TravisO, when the author refers that TSMC is half generation behinds Intel, he mean in the manufacturing process, not in the architecture level. Intel is currently doing 45nm processors, TSMC is currently doing 55nm GPU's and is currently experimenting with 45nm technology and AMD is doing 65nm process. So that's good for AMD, nice talk TravisO!!Fusion?
im not totally sure about any of this but...will this help them with their fusion project? (cpu+gpu)
im sure i read somewhere that amd's manufacturing process does not work too well with gpu type processors
they could get TSMC to make a cpu with both gpu and cpu on a single die (dice whatever u want to call it) further down the track when they have that step of fusion finalised
i think this an essential step with the fusion project
