>AMD's .18µm Cu process supports up to 7ML, but I believe Athlon only uses 5ML. Hammer could use more, which could help decrease the die size (but increases process time and may negatively impact bin splits, from what I understand).<

Athlon has used nine metal layers from day one of production. Only the samples produced for the demos were 5 metal layers.
