It seems that we're getting a lot more for our money in processors these days - more failure that is! Discuss....

No burn in eh? The customer is the final quality control inspector. We make them and just ship them out.
Cosmic ray shielding can't be cheap.
Maybe different geometry, like honeycomb or graphite structures?
Maybe software with looser approximation in comparison operations?
Archive storage would be good to cover – still thinking of holographic storage cubes "from the future"
Even so called 'modern' ceramic capacitors break down, especially those close to processors which increase their leakage as they get hotter.
can't help but wonder how many of these chips will survive the coming EMP attack? we've been warned by the Gov that it is coming, so prepare accordingly. When the dust settles, we'll be back to pencil and paper.
They are putting in a big chip plant in Heath Oh soon. Local economy is optimistic.
Just reflowed 10 16pin 0.3 FCBGA accelerometers 3x3mm package. I feel like god ๐
Love vintage C172 shirt!
Hmmm! Gimme some tomato failure!
Did you know that in Holland they have mayonnaise with their chips?
Nice old-school CPUs and motherboards here – brings back the SIMMs, DIMMs, SDRAMs and DDR1s :). I really thought it was a '90s newspaper!
Looks like the Moore's law has some limits, either they will be overcome or, like you said, we'll need multicore multi-processor machines. By the way, the idea of stacking CPUs is kinda cool, with more powerful models being just a stack of multiple units, probably soldered together via ball-grid array, but there's gonna be a big heat problem, plus you can't use socket-standardized heatsinks anymore. So yes, using multiple sockets on a mobo seems like a more sensible solution.
Yep, AMD's Milan-X Delivers 1.5GB of L3 Cache to EPYC Servers, $1,880 64C, 128T, 768MB of L3 Cache..We are Back to Pentium Pro Size in Chips..
Ah, history repeats. The joys of unexplained crashes of supercomputers. Yup, that'll be a cosmic ray…
