News AMD announces first ARM chip, embedded roadmap

A57 has the ability to be fabbed at 20nm and even down to 14nm ; none of the `usual` suspects that AMD use have the ability to fab that small - yet...

A57 appears to use a group of4 cores sharing a single L2 cache.

IMO it looks like an A15 with 64bit support and streamlining

 

Seeing as AMD are going fully integrated with their chip designs, which now include a CPU and GPU is there any chance we’ll see a chip with RAM on too any time soon? Similar to what's been done on the Xbox One?

 

Oh Amd, how i loved thee
your canny burst of value and speed
long gone are the days of fire in your eyes
just the tiny spark in the rotting muscles of your twitching corpse

 

Bahh all this focus on lower power, what i want is more poowwwaarrrr (said in a Jeremy Clarkson voice)

 

With today's Quark announcement from Intel, these are interesting times, indeed.
