Smooth With Intel's 45nm Penryn either in Fab or sampling, depending on how you read the statements, and AMD's K8L MIA, it is safe to say they are both more or less at similar stages of development, only Intel is an entire generation ahead. We may even see an Intel 45nm Demo before we see an AMD 65nm one! AMD partisans will no doubt see this as proof that AMD is well ahead!

>> and maybe even not a real 65nm, more like 90nm moving to 65nm... What does that mean ? What I want to understand is the effect on cost of processors in q1 '07, of AMD moving to 65 nm. Is my understanding correct ? That the first generation of 65 nm will be fabricated using the transistor design of the current 90 nm ? Would that apply to cache memory, too ? And would that design result in more processors per wafer ?
