There is no longer any bin-split discrepancy between AMD's 65nm process and its 90nm process. AMD must be yielding as many high-end parts from 65nm wafers as it ever did from 90nm wafers.

Bzzzt. Wrong. AMD is making all of its high-end parts from 200mm 90nm wafers out of Fab 30. The "all 65nm starts" claim only applied to Fab 36. Fab 30 is scheduled to keep cranking out 90nm parts all this year... why? because they have to, apparently, to get any fast parts.

Petz,

There is no longer any bin-split discrepancy between AMD's 65nm process and its 90nm process.

Actually, 90nm still outbins 65nm, by a good margin. Highest 90nm parts are 3 GHz, while the highest 65nm parts available for sale are 2.5 GHz, with 2.6 Ghz part on the pricelist, but not widely available.
