I'm wondering if they can make chips without many defects given the size and leakage on those size of gates. This could be one of those situations where the economy is pushing too hard and too fast.

Why is 14nm bare bottom? Even current public roadmaps hit 11nm with current immersion litho, EUV & co. Sure it looks like bottom from where we are but once we get down to it, we will think otherwise.

28 NM ARTICLE HAS GONE TO CLOUDS, YET BASILY FIRST WILL BE LARGE CHIPS THAT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SIZE directly as performance, Desktop/Server. then smaller stuuf, like mobiLap & then really small, mostly locked in by design, yet better yeilds & battery life.

890 on its way in Slow Lane, expected now in early spring 2010. No difference from 790Fx is expected. same with 58XX game cards, only sooner to market.

28 nm is one step from bare bottom, 14 nm. one more refresh & you be judge. Was IT Worth It?

Theres never going to be DNA CPU(except bS Pundits use of coliform), yet there will be SSD CPU & its scale is massive number of transisotrs, scale becomes something new. Poor Gordie, you should have worked it into Life Expectancy thanger. moore? Never Moore? moore?

Pretty arrogant coming from a bunch of clowns that can't even master 40nm, right, AMD and NVidia?
