    IBM Beats Intel To 7nm Process Thanks To Silicon-Germanium Transistors, EUV Lithography

    I wouldn't say they "beat" Intel just quite yet... I mean who knows, Intel may have plenty of working 7nm parts already. Anyways, for me the real 'winner' is the first one to have mass produced parts that are available for sale.

    Most Of Apple's A9/A9X Chips To Be Manufactured On TSMC's 16nm FinFET Process

    Intel's 14nm was a true shrink on the front end of line (FEOL) AND back end of line (BEOL) vs their 22nm node. Where as samsung/tsmc/gf all only shrank the FEOL vs their 20nm nodes. The back end (metalization layers) are still the same as their 20nm process. They are basically just adding the...

    Nvidia Announces Three Versions of GeForce GT 730

    They are all going to be similar performance levels. THe 96 shader version is an older Fermi based GPU, so it has the "Hot Clocks" where as the 384 core versions are going to be Kepler based and not have the "Hot Clocks" This type of gig is pretty common on the low end SKU's, especially in mobile.

    Report: Upcoming Intel 9-Series Chipsets May Not Support Current Haswell CPUs

    Ok guys this article has a few things wrong. First of all, the Haswell refresh will target current 8-series motherboards. Every gen has a refresh ~6 months after launch, and this typically includes a bunch of new SKU's with slightly bumped clockspeeds, otherwise they are identical. Nothing...
