NVIDIA Graphics empowers SGI workstations. INTEL DELAYS production... The Santa Clara, Calif.-based chip giant is expected to announce Wednesday that it will postpone opening Fab 24 in Leixlip, Ireland, from the second half of 2001 to the second half of 2002. The factory is being built to make microprocessors, such as the Pentium 4. Delaying the plant will also let the company more aggressively gear up for 300-millimeter wafer production in 2002. These wafers, which have diameters measuring 300 millimeters rather than 200 millimeters, are far more economical from a production point of view. A single 300-millimeter wafer can produce roughly 225 percent more wafers, which leads to lower overall costs.
