<p>Computex....&nbsp;new chips from AMD and Intel &nbsp;later this year.</p>

<p>from Engadget.</p>

<p>hard to dissipate heat and more errors on a big chip.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>break up the cpu into chiplets.</p>

<p>make subassemblies separately.&nbsp; &nbsp;Intel struggling for years with 10 nm.&nbsp; Intel 10 nm has 100M xsistor per mm2.&nbsp; combine into multi-chip module.&nbsp; &nbsp;Computex in May... &nbsp;CPU at 7nm and IO at 14 nm in sep. chiplet.&nbsp; &nbsp;Intel will stack these.... &nbsp;longer batterylife&nbsp; &nbsp;Foveros from Intel. &nbsp;stack DRAM ont op of CPU. &nbsp; eg&nbsp; 10 nm Sunny Cove. &nbsp;improved power effic.&nbsp; &nbsp;EMIB&nbsp; embedded multi-die interconnect bridge. &nbsp;can it dissipate heat? &nbsp; will next gety Lakefield...&nbsp;big reveal at Computex.&nbsp;</p>
