Let me tell you how to win this game intel. I know that adding more cores is not a big deal for you. If you really want to win, just add fucking 60 more cores on your CPU! I don't care if is as big as a pancake. BECAUSE you are changing you motherboard socket anyways. Use your f**king brain and your sh*tty 14nm prcoess!

Source: http://www.anandtech.com/show/11115/intel-confirms-8th-gen-core-on-14nm-data-center-first-to-new-nodes So this is interesting... We thought that Intel was simply transitioning from Product-Architecture-Optimization from the traditional tick-tock cycle, but now we're gonna be on 14nm for 4 full generations. This was definitely unexpected and leaves us wondering how much difficulty Intel is going through for 10nm. As well, it also leaves us wondering if we won't be seeing Cannonlake for consumers until 2019. Intel keeps touting that they're 14nm process is superior to competitors 14nm and 16nm processors and is on par with competing 10nm processes, but if Intel keeps delaying then others may be on 7nm when Intel is on 10nm, etc. What exactly will happen though still remains to be seen. -
So i am working on my technical seminar Paper and its about how Moore's law is coming to an end. While i was looking into the transistor counts of some processors i noticed that the R7 1800x has significantly more transistors than the 6950x. What i am confused about is , how does a processor(1800x has 4.8 bln transistors vs the 6950x has 3.2 bln) with significantly more transistors and higher clock rate(base 3.0 vs 3.6ghz ) fail to out perform the 6950x.Transistor count and their switching frequency are two main factors defining IPC.The architecture does play an important role in IPC but to what extent ? Can someone experienced in the field of VLSI engineering please elaborate on this? Thanks in advance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transistor_count *MODS , please move the thread to where it needs to be if it already isn't!

Source: http://wccftech.com/intel-core-i7-8700k-cpu-benchmarks-leak/amp/http://wccftech.com/intel-core-i7-8700k-cpu-benchmarks-leak/amp/ Anyone else think Intel has been a little too quiet during AMD's comeback? Well, judging from these benchmarks and rumoured CPU lineup for 8th generation chips, I'd say they listened to what AMD had to say, and now are ready to reply. The i7-8700k looks like a very capable chip with 6 cores and 12 threads, but what honestly interests me is the i5-8600k, with 6 cores and 6 threads (rumoured, I should point out). Curious to see how it'll stack up to AMD's lineup, as the Ryzen 7 is still offering more cores, but as Intel always seems to get right, I'm sure single-core performance will be excellent and the chips will clock to higher frequencies. Let me know what you think. My biggest concern for Intel is everyone who had a system that was a few years old switch/upgrade to Ryzen, and I'm not sure how many people are left in that category who would be heading in Intel's direction. Just food for thought. ***Note: The attached image(s) are screenshots of the referenced website's chart(s), and are not my intellectual property.

Source: https://www.guru3d.com/news-story/intel-might-drop-10nm-node-for-desktop-processors.html Source 2: https://www.tweaktown.com/news/68127/intel-cancels-10nm-desktop-14nm-hold-until-2022/index.html All I know is this; the idea that 14nm with "some tweaks" will be enough for Intel to compete with AMD until 2022, does not seem very convincing Intel. Let's all hope that their quick response claiming that their 10nm node is still currently on track, is actually factual, and not Intel simply trying to draw attention away from the topic.

im Confused. I don’t understand how this works. so intel make a 10nm version of the chips they make, so is the 10nm faster than the 14nm or is the idea just to keep the speed but shrink the size? Does my question make sence? TT

So it's no secret that intel has been facing shortages on their 14nm node. A few weeks ago, we heard HP was recommending EPYC servers to mitigate shortages for their customers, and more recently we even heard that Intel might be outsourcing some production to rival TSMC. But Intel isn't done mitigating shortages, so now they plan to return to 22nm for their non-critical and low margin hardware, in this case the h310 chipset.

https://www.change.org/p/intel-change-intel-s-philosophy-give-us-10nm-already Made a petition so that Intel can know how we feel about things like NVME Raid keys, rushed responses to AMD, stagnating 14nm for 2 (now saying one more) years. -
source: http://www.reuters.com/article/us-samsung-elec-nvidia-idUSKCN10N0L0 two things come to mind: the source got some shit wrong and this is actually nVidia upcoming Volta arch or, TSCM can't keep up with Pascal GPU demand and forced nVidia to seek a 2ndary manufacturer although, from all the news floating around and the apparent lack of stock, it is quite possibly this is about a 2nd source for Pascal based GPUs, Tesla accelerators or even mobile GPUs -
New and exciting news came to us my friends. Apparently, there have been some dieshots of the new AMD ZEN architecture floating around. http://semiaccurate.com/2016/05/22/38688/ http://dresdenboy.blogspot.cz/2016/05/first-amd-summit-ridge-wafer-spotted.html There have even been some performance estimations regarding the IPC of the new architecture and it looks nice. It should be around IVY BRIDGE level of performance (according to a Czech website called pctuning.cz ) and as to the progress (or should I say...stagnation) of the blue team, Zen should be very competitive. There has been like a 15% Difference in IPC going from IVY to Skylake and with DDR4 things could get interesting.

According to OC3D, AMD is rumored to launch Vega in October. Is this the answer to GP104? Vega is a new apparently bigger than 300mm2 GPU with 4096 stream-processors and HBM2. It is build on Samsungs 14nm Fin-Fet + process. Source: http://overclock3d.net/articles/gpu_displays/amd_vega_gpu_launch_reportedly_moved_to_october/1 My take on this... We can expect about 15-20% More performance per core going to a new GCN architecture, the clocks should get higher to (In my opinion about 20-30% more than FIJI). HBM2 should help as-well, because every GCN architecture has been bandwidth limited.

Source: http://www.anandtech.com/show/10029/price-check-intel-skylake-6700k-6600k-february-16 As most of you probably know after the Skylake launch the price of the 6600k and 6700k went up pretty high. The 6700k was retailing for $420, $70 above what it should have been, and the 6600k was going for around $270-290, around 30-50 dollars more than it should have been. However, it seems they are getting back in stock now. Earlier this week the 6700k was going for around $365 on Amazon, which is pretty close to 350. If you ask me, that is a reasonable price to pay for one. The reason seems to be that Intel is turning out better yields for 14nm. Now 14nm seems to comprise of the majority of Intel's chip production. Hopefully this will make the 6700k a better bet again. At over 400 dollars it was hard to recommend it over the 5820k, which was slightly cheaper, had more cores, more cache, quad channel memory, as well as other perks including more pcie lanes. Even with more expensive motherboards the 5820k was still a compelling buy with the 6700k, a consumer part, priced ABOVE the "enthusiast" part. Hopefully the Skylake shortage will be over soon!

source: http://www.globalfoundries.com/newsroom/press-releases/2015/11/05/globalfoundries-achieves-14nm-finfet-technology-success-for-next-generation-amd-products --- GloFo's press release mentions "multiple products" and "compute and graphics technologies", could this mean that both Arctic Islands and 'Zen' based CPUs will be manufactured on 14nm? I will hazzard and make a speculation: TSMC will use 16nm for the lower end Arctic Island based GPUs, that also have been rumored to use GDD5x and GloFo's 14nm for both hi-end and mid range GPUs plus 'Zen' CPU architecture technology wise, 1/2 half of 2016 will be a very interesting period

So I have a 3960x Asus sabertooth x79 dual msi gtx 970's 128gb ssd and dual 2 tb ssds I was wondering if I should just sell my build and wait for broad well CPUs or just stay with what I have, I used to do a lot of AutoCAD work so if I switched I would probably go with the i5 and also if someone could help me out and evaluate how much I could probably get for my system it would be greatly appreciated -
"As per the rumor mill"Since skylake won't be that much of a jump over haswell and would be still using DDR3 i am thinking about selling my 2500 before its value depreciates even more and buying a xeon 1220 v3 for its 8mb cache over the 4690k's 6mb .Should i camp out or should i make the jump ? These are rumors so don't hate on me. -
Reported via KitGuru, Global Foundries has expressed, through Jason Gorss, a Senior Manager of Corporate and Technology Communications, that their 14nm LPE (Low-Power Early) manufacturing process is producing better than expected yields and defect density. This is likely a result of their continued partnership with Samsung, where the two have put a lot of effort into homogenizing the manufacturing process, materials, and both purity and parity of chemical make-ups. The 14nm LPE process is presumed to be making use of ASML's newer 1970CI Immersion Lithography machines utilizing UV, based on the EARLIER presumption that the fab plant was making use of earlier model 1950i machines from the same line. Hinting at higher throughput, greater precision, and better yields. They released no specific numbers on the yields, and the number of wafers able to be manufactured per month is also an unknown to those outside of the company. And before it comes up this is NOT the process AMD would be making use of from GloFo for any of their chips. The process they would be utilizing from GloFo is their 14nm LPP (Low-Power Plus) so this news bodes well for those firms looking for better yields from a process traditionally used for Mobile device processors and SoC's. On a note of personal interest I did not realize Samsung's fab, which is currently making use of this 14nm process, is in Austin, Texas.

Source Well I guees DDR4 will be "mainstream" now !! Great for those who cant afford a x99 platform, I dont know though how benificial it will be for games. Maybe we will get a price cut for the current haswell cpus I cant wait though !!!!

It's no secret that AMD has been working on a brand new high-performance x86 CPU core to replace the aging Piledriver family of FX processors. News of this new x86 core broke in May. AMD has also officially stated that the new core will go into new enthusiast FX parts. With the legendary Jim Keller heading the project it's no doubt that we're possibly looking at a very interesting design. After all Jim was the man behind both the AthlonXP and Athlon64 processors. AMD's two best CPU microarchitectures in recent history. It was revealed by the company's CEO Rory P Read during the Deutsche Bank Conference that the new core is code named "Zen". It was widely speculated early on that AMD's next gen CPU core will be manufactured on the unified Globalfoundires/Samsung 14nm manufacturing process. A report from ZDNet claims that among the many clients of Samsung including mobile giants Apple and Qualcomm, AMD would join the list. The report claims that Samsung will begin volume production for AMD near the end of this year. This is exciting news because it means that for the first time in years AMD will compete against Intel on a comparable manufacturing process. This would almost certainly eliminate Intel's process advantage and means that Skylake will not go uncontested. Stay tuned for more info.- 155 replies

On Tuesday, Intel demonstrated its 5th generation Core i-series microprocessors (codenamed Broadwell), they, however did not reveal a lot of details other than a new manufacturing process, enabling better efficiency. Broadwell will be using a 14nm process technology, as expected, with tri-gate transistors and are supposed to begin production later this year. Intel also plans to put more effort into their Atom family for smartphones, tablets etc. with their 14nm Airmont microarchitecture. So, as expected Broadwell will be a die-shrink with possibly improved clock speeds and graphics performance and, of course, less power consumption. The chips are expected to hit the market in the second half of 2014.

Intel Delays Fab 42 Heating and Air Conditioning installed but None of the actual Fabrication Equipment. Before you start ranting along the lines of “what? no 14nm?!?” and “Intel is doomed”, please let me clarify. There will still be a 14nm, just not from Fab 42 and no this cannot be taken in any economically sane universe as a sign that Intel is dying. However the one thing that cannot be denied is that Intel is taking pressure from the entire ARM industry. Building fabrication foundries is very capital intensive and since any given company exists to sell itself, it is understandable that Intel would delay Fab 42, which is located in Arizona. Intel also hinted that Intel will instead utilize the brand new Fab 42 directly for 10nm production. And unlike AMD, Intel has multiple fabrication plants, where it will ramp up production to 14nm while its flagship Fab 42 will remain dormant till 10nm( or so we are told). It was more or less implied that the reason for this decision is two fold, one is of course the logical economic argument and the second is that Intel is taking heat from ARM competition and it needs to focus on the current market without taking any risks.

Lisa Su Senior Vice President & General Manager at AMD announced on Thursday that AMD will be taping out 20nm chips in the next quarter with 14nm FinFET chips following the quarter after it, siting the Feb 14 date for TSMC's 20nm node. Source This highly suggests that AMD's 20nm GPUs are very close to being ready for the manufacturing phase, we still do not know what will be made on the 14nm FinFET process but it will likely be one of AMD's low power cores due to the immaturity of the 14nm process, high-performance chips will likely follow later on once the process is more mature & the yields are more forgiving. At this rate AMD will be closing in on Intel's 14nm plans, which are facing delays.

Broadwell, the short lived (only sold for 8 months, only two models of non extreme edition desktop SKUs), was the first Intel chip with the 14nm process node. In all of Linus's videos, he notes skylake as the first to use this node, and this is commonly believed in the PC enthusiast community. This makes the joke that they were stuck on 14nm even more hilarious as it was even longer, all the way back to early 2014. But it also means alot of us are incorrect, including linus, and myself until I researched it further after wanting to make a haswell refresh or broadwell build on a Z97 board.
