45nm in 2008
Enjoy!
does that mean the 65nm is just around the corner?

They are already converting/builing the new FAB's which is why you cant get 1mb L2 until the end of this year. So yes 65nm for Q4 2006

And props to AMD for using Flash, not WMV or some other proprietary format.

Yea, but they should have worked on filming him at diffrent positions cause he was standing with a slant to the left the whole time and the video which they played mad it look odd when it changed sides lol. Just pointless stuff, from a marketing perspective.

45nm in 2008
Enjoy!
Did you read the precautionary statement. That was also provided. Thats the key to this marketing pubcast. Right now Its really not looking good . That AMD can meet the guidelines as set forth.
Sounds great. I personally don't have any need for quad core CPUs, but I'm ready to upgrade to dual core and both Intel and AMD are really picking it up.

They "expect" to be on 45nm process by 2008. They did not say they "are" going to be on it. That's not good. That means that they are probably having problems, but they hope to have them sorted out before 2008. For our sakes, I hope they have it sorted out before the end of '06.

- - plan on delivering 45nm technologies by the middle of 2008 - -If they plan on going 45nm nanometer they can be expected to do so, until they say otherwise. I doubt they base their plans and official statements on anything but the facts their engineers can provide.

Yep, I don't think AMD has ever steered me wrong. If they say 2008, it will be 2008. 2Q07 is 2Q07. ect ect

You have a great sig. With that said I have to go over to Beyond 3D forums . This ATI AMD merger should really have these guys going goofy.

This speculation is silly. Everybody thinks they had problems with 65nm. They thought it wouldn't come out until late 2007. :rolleyes: But oh look they are coming out in the end of the year. :slap: Strange, man this is silly. They have bloody IBM hello. IBM gave them the tech like they did for Intel and the same for 45nm and lower.
It was IBM who made it, they have no problems means AMD nore Intel is. :stick: Takes some time to convert you know, they can't just snap their fingers and it happens. It use to take 2 years for each company to convert now its down to just a year or less. Thats amazing and not a easy thing to do. Most ppl can't even fathum the numbers it takes to convert every area of a fab and wafer to make each die into 65nm with 90nm around in the same place.
With ATi, there will be hugh fab enhancments as well as to transistors for AMD cpus. 65nm is a walk in the park. They are ahead of all road maps aready as it is. Don't be surprised, AMD isn't no small company anymore as some like to think it is. Its growing so fast and without conroe intel would have been blown away. Intel lost 57% profit as it is from their failures. Finally did something right and made a perfect cpu. But with price cuts from amd matching intel pretty much per watt with their 35w dual cores. Its much better price per performance per watt. A 20% boost in speed doesn't make up for the 65w conroe power consumption. When AMD's can do 35w. AMD 50w max compared to 100w max of conroe.
You can't tell me a conroe is a better value then a AMD 35w dual core when it costs way less and consumes 50% less power. ANd upgrades? Well try a new chipset every 6 months. No freaken way. I will not change a damn mobo just to upgrade a cpu on the same socket. :rolleyes: Thats the only problem I have with conroe. No chipset will support quadros or newer conroes that are faster then a X6800.
AMD's mobos will support cpus for 3 years in Rev G, H, and K8L. As well as quad core, 45nm's, and another damn generation. AM3 ho ho well well well. Whats the better deal then? I'd rather stick with one mobo and actouly have the chance to max it out then change to a new one just cus I want a better model then one that came out 6 months ago. :nono: They finally make a perfect cpu and the only thing stoping me from buying it is its damn compattibility and limited upgradeability for the future. Hello intel, put memory controlers in the cpus and I'll be happy to buy a mobo I can stick to for afew years with all your cpu upgrades. But noo they didn't with conroe. :slapass:
Silly stupid really. I'm not a bank. I'm trying to future proof my parts so i don't have to spend so much money on cpu+mobo each time. :slapass: Why intel why can't you do everything right for once. Do one thing right and con everybody into getting there new chipsets every so and so months. :confused: Thats a bad way to do marketing. Guess why I like AMD better. Well also cus I have my heart set on those ATi chipsets and the new matx DFI boards... Ooooo. I have nothing agenst conroe. It blows the blast doors off AMD. But still it isn't coming in. lol I like the features and price of mobos from AMD better. I'm going ATi in my chipsets from now on.
Intel needs to make more matx's that can actouly OC. Conroe is very impressive I agree and beleave everything I see from it. But performance isn't the only thing I'm intrested in, performance by 20% or 10% doesn't matter to me. Its not a lot really, mostly after the price drops happened, intel needs to do more price cuts. AMD's power saving cpus that do 35w are what really make the difference in price per watt in performance again. 20% in performance doesn't equal 50% decrease in power savings. Intel may have the performance but the power differences are still 50% AMD being more effecent. :fact:
