Making First 32nm Microprocessor

Sanjay Natarajan is an Intel rock star and director of logic technology development for the worlds first microprocessors built with 32 nanometer process, codenamed Westmere. Sanjay shares how Intel has reinvented the transistor again, improving upon Intels leading 45nm processor by creating smaller gate pitch and higher drive performance. He talks about using immersion lithography technique for the first time, and how different teams across Intel optimized new energy efficiency and performance features that will be available inside all new Intel Core microprocessors in 2010.

all I see is a washroom mirror.... where are the statistics!

I want my motherboard to run a wafer that should put me on top of processing power for 2 weeks

[bobythemaster]

@qzchris it's made out of silicon, it's extremely strong.

@MrGreekdog This huge wafer is a collection of hundreds of CPU dies.

@rysliv No shit.

This is probably a stupid question, but if he did drop it, would it shatter? How sturdy are these wafers (assuming that's what he's holding)?

I don't want integrated graphics, i never use integrated graphics. if i did want integrated graphics i wouldn't want it stuck on my cpu, i'd want it on my motherboard. If a competitor does something right, made you can make some adaptations of your own

don't drop it !

трындец блин, зеркало

AMAZING work :D , i've to write an essay on evolution of Intel microprocessor from 1971 to the present and i only have data till 2007 so please if anyone has any recommendations or info let me know...*asap ^_^* thanks

he's holding a blank one ..

@nicaw y 150watts? is it some threshold for cpu load? wat happens if its above 150
