Press Release: ARM and TSMC Tape Out First ARM Cortex-A57 Processor on TSMC's 16nm FinFET Technology
Hsinchu, Taiwan and Cambridge, UK – April 2, 2013 – ARM and TSMC (TWSE: 2330, NYSE: TSM) today announced the first tape-out of an ARM® Cortex™-A57 processor on FinFET process technology. The Cortex-A57 processor is ARM's highest performing processor, designed to further extend the capabilities of future mobile and enterprise computing, including compute intensive applications such as high-end computer, tablet and server products.
This is the first milestone in the collaboration between ARM and TSMC to jointly optimize the 64-bit ARMv8 processor series on TSMC FinFET process technologies. The two companies cooperated in the implementation from RTL to tape-out in six months using ARM Artisan® physical IP, TSMC memory macros, and EDA technologies enabled by TSMC's Open Innovation Platform® (OIP) design ecosystem.

We've just published a review on the Evercool Venti HPQ-12025 CPU Cooler. Like I'v always said ... Not all CPU coolers are created the same. Evercool tries to impress our guys, but fail to do so. Still, the Evercool Venti-Series HPQ-12025 CPU Cooler is good for users on a budget (I suppose). Here's a snip ...
"Well, I'm sorry to say, but I'm a bit underwhelmed with this one. For all the marketing hype that companies assign to their products, I can't help but feel this is a bit misplaced."

Featuring 768 CUDA cores ... Nvidia's latest release, the Geforce GTX 650Ti BOOST should give gamers that extra "boost" ... Though I think their stalling and struggling to release anything decent (consoles and mobile chips are straining their resources). AMD on the other hand will be releasing their next-gen HD 8000 series soon.
"Nvidia has introduced its new GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost GPU. Based on the Nvidia Kepler architecture and equipped with 768 CUDA cores, the GTX 650 Ti Boost GPU is available in 2GB and 1GB configurations at an estimated US$169 and US$149, respectively.
With up to 40% more performance over the original GeForce GTX 650 Ti GPU introduced last year, the new GeForce GTX 650 Ti boost features support for Nvidia's GPU Boost technology, which dynamically adjusts GPU performance to meet the graphics processing demands of games, and Nvidia SLI technology, which allows gamers to use multiple GPUs to double performance, the company noted.
With a wider 192-bit memory interface and up to 60% more memory bandwidth than the original, the GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost GPU is able to support resolutions up to 1080p."

A fast GPU running at 1Ghz ... a nice performer against the Geforce GTX 650Ti
"Today brought a new desktop GPU product announcement from AMD -- the Radeon HD 7790, the first Bonaire chip GPU, a member of the new Sea Islands family. The new 7000 series launch is mostly about filling in the gaps in AMD's aging product lineup. Namely, the GPU falls roughly between the Radeon HD 7850 and the Radeon HD 7770 in performance -- a gap where NVIDIA's GK106-powered GeForce GTX 650 Ti currently lurks.
Manufactured on the same Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Comp., Ltd. (TPE:2330) 28 nm process, the device packs the same 1 GHz core clock, but 40 percent more shader cores than the Radeon HD 7770, thanks to its 500M extra transistors. "
