Computex 2009: AMD Demonstrates working 40nm DirectX 11 Silicon

[news 28]

Ryan is out doing recon over at Computex 2009 and has brought us news from

AMD. They have demonstrated working DX11 silicon manufactured on a 40nm

process.

"AMD certainly has set a aggressive pace, and so far we have not seen any

information from NVIDIA that they have a working DX11 part in house (all

rumors point to them NOT having any working silicon at this time). If TSMC

can fix its 40nm issues, and AMD can ramp these parts in a timely manner,

then it is not unreasonable to expect actual product to be available for the

October launch of Windows 7."

 

Thanks in advance for posting!
