AMD recently provided a comprehensive overview of the Zen 5 architecture and CCD sizes during the Zen 5 Tech Day event. The company unveiled that the CCD, known as Eldora, houses up to 8 Zen 5 cores and measures 70.6mm², nearly identical to the Zen 4 CCD (71mm²). Despite the …

Intel's next-generation Arc Xe2 discrete GPUs, featuring the "Battlemage" graphics architecture, are reportedly set to be manufactured using TSMC's 4nm EUV foundry node. This move represents a significant leap from Intel's previous Arc "Alchemist" series, which uses the TSMC 6nm DUV technology...

It looks like TSMC will soon become the source of all major gaming GPUs. AMD and Nvidia already utilise TSMC's fabs and according to a recent report, Intel will soon do the same.  According to Taiwan's Commercial Times (via Tom's Hardware), the Battlemage GPUs from Intel will be manufactured by …

AMD only just recently began talking about its upcoming Ryzen 7000 processors, but leaks are already starting to flood in. AMD's upcoming ‘Phoenix Point' mobile processors are already appearing in benchmark databases, giving us an early look at specs and performance.  The benchmark entry found by Benchleaks shows an engineering …

Samsung foundries have produced most, if not all, Nvidia current-gen graphics cards, but that may change soon. As per a new report, Nvidia will opt for TSMC as the foundry for its chips in 2022, meaning the RTX 40 series and H100 GPUs will be based on TSMC's nodes. According …

At the moment, AMD's main foundry is TSMC, but it seems the chipmaker is planning to outsource part of its chip production to another foundry. According to researchers at J. P. Morgan, AMD might turn to Samsung to produce 4nm chips to power Chromebooks. In addition, AMD might also use …

Qualcomm has recently stated it would change the Snapdragon branding and naming scheme, starting with its new flagship SoC. That time has now come, with Qualcomm announcing the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, based on the 4nm process node and using the ARMv9 instruction set.  Like many of its predecessors, …

Earlier this year, we learned that Samsung and AMD were partnering up on a new Exynos SoC featuring RDNA 2 graphics cores. Now, the first benchmark result for the Samsung Exynos 2200 has appeared online, but while the results are decent, we're still months away from the planned Q1 2022 …
