Cirruslvr,

Re: " ... which I took to mean that even though the Athlon may have a high yield % ..."

No Cringe, you missed the "point" that Elmer was making. Elmer was
stating correctly that a larger die size will have a lower percentage yield
than a small die AND it will also obviously have fewer GDPW. I think
if you understood processing better, you would realize the significance of die size
on die yield (%), GDPW and manufacturing cost. Tell me Cringe ... Will
AMD move the K7 to a true .18um (FEOL & BEOL) process or will they wait
for the Dresden "fiasco" ??

Make It So,
Yousef
