AMD Athlon 64 FX-74 & Quad FX Platform Review

Posted on Thursday, November 30 2006 @ 15:25:04 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck |
So what’s been taking so long for AMD to get their quad-core CPU out on the market? It really boils down to manufacturing ability, which points out one of the most, if not the most, significant advantages Intel has over AMD. The fact of the matter is that Intel has many more fabrication facilities that feature more advanced manufacturing processes than AMD, allowing the company to make more next-generation processors at a cheaper cost while bringing the technology to market more quickly. Intel has been producing 65nm wafers in volume for months and is slated to start producing 45nm wafers in the second half of 2007 while AMD is barely producing 65nm wafers and 45nm product is off somewhere into 2008..
