Could someone please explain how both AMD and Intel grade chips/wafers for speed bins. Also, if a whole wafer is graded for a particular speed, what happens to the chips that do not test out to the speed grade for the wafer? I might be under the mis-assumption that wafers are sampled to set speeds rather than testing of individual chips.

TIA
