IBM says 32nm processors will offer 35% more performance than 45nm parts
Chipmakers are always looking to move to smaller nanometer build processes. The smaller process allows them to get more chips on a single wafer and helps improve power efficiency and performance at the same time.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
yay. with 45 ready and 32 in the horizon a price cut would be expected to launch with the 45.
haha. why's it a picture of cell...
45nm is already TINY... its crazy to think they can shrink it a bit more. its only a few wavelengths of light difference.. lol.
heck, most computers aren't even using 45nm. i can only think of the macbook air that uses a 45nm chip
does anyone know what chip xbox360 jasper will have i'll be pissed off if it still has 65nm and not 45nm.why microsoft taking this much time to update the chips.
jeez....32nm?
We could easily see 8-core processors in PCs with the significant decrease in heat 32nm would offer. Hell, I bet even stock cooling systems could handle that just fine!
Very nice indeed.
Smaller process also means less heat but with greater efficiency I sure hope next gen means the use of such processors, imagine an 8 core CPU - the 360 CPU uses a triple core and an 8 core on a 32mn process would be incredible.
