>> then it would appear to mean that they've already shrunk, and were just waiting for the rest of the die to shrink. OK, I was going to mention that, but didn't want to drag this out. But what the heck, if you have the patience, I do too. How can 90 nm transistors made in Fab 30 on 90 nm equipment be already shrunk to 65 nm ? would the Fab 30 equipment be able to do that ? I'm assuming there are not two different masks for fab 30 and fab 36, even though fab 36 is capable of 65 nm, the inaugeration annoucement was AMD would make 90 nm chips in it until the design transitions to 65 nm. as for the low clocks, next post.
