AMD K8 still not taped out


I hope everybody enjoys Magee's latest. As with the rest of the rumor mill, take it with a grain of salt.

On the other hand, Mike, if you're reading this, what more can you tell us about the reliability of your sources?

IT WOULD BE NICE to report along with some other Web sites that AMD's X86-64, currently being fashioned on the wheel by Dirk Meyer and associates, has already taped out.
But sources close to the chip firm tell the INQUIRER that it won't now tape out until Q1 2002, along with its integrated North Bridge and the like.

However, AMD is expected to leak quite a few more details of the K8 at next week's Microprocessor Forum, while the intriguing capabilities of SMP-on-a-chip are being explored in several places, particularly so in Chip Architect.

The "Hammer rumours ramp" story below includes links to a South Bridge design (JC), Hammer already sampling (Van's), and our own "AMD's Extraordinary Roadmap".
